Ok, this is annoying.  Is there some reason why git doesn't pull the
tags in properly when doing a merge?  Chris and I just hit this when I
pulled his 2.6.12.1 tree and and was wondering where the tag went.


Tags are private in git (the same way branches are), which means that you
can have a million of your own tags and never disturb anybody else.

But, like branches, it means that if you want a tag, you need to know the tag you want, and download it the same way you download a branch.

Still -- that's interesting data that no script currently tracks. You gotta fall back to rsync.
