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.
Something like
git-ssh/http-pull -w tags/<tagname> tags/<tagname> <url>
_should_ hopefully work now (and the "-a" flag should mean that you also
get all the objects needed for the tag).
The problem isn't pulling tags, the problem is that nothing
automatically downloads the 41-byte tag files themselves. Pulling
linux-2.6.git after the 2.6.12 release did not cause refs/tags/v2.6.12
to be downloaded.
With BK, tags came with each pull. With git, you have to go "outside
the system" (rsync) just get the new tags.
