Subject: git issues while fetching from http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git/

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to fetch from the Linux kernel repository at 
http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git/. After 
downloading the objects, git failed while trying to fetch tags. Retrying the 
fetch operation gives the following output:

$ git-fetch origin

Failed to fetch refs/tags/v2.6.20 from 
http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git/

While trying to solve the issue, I noticed that the refs/tags directory in the 
remote repository is empty. Is that a normal situation ? Should git be able 
to regenerate the tags locally from the objects ? I'm using git 1.4.4.4.

Best regards,

Laurent Pinchart
