Oh, and if it's because your old script can't verify the tag-names, so
you fix things up by hand instead of scripting it, try using
"tags/<tagname>" instead of just "<tagname>". That makes old git
versions at least see the reference, even if they don't then react to
the signing itself (ie they just treat it as the commit it points to,
rather than as a tag with interesting contents in itself)
