Ugh. Not only that, but:

>   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc.git fixes

you have both a branch called "fixes" and a tag called "fixes".
Ambiguous. And when you ask me to pull like the above, it actually
picks the branch, not the tag.

Don't do this. Either use the unambiguous name ("tags/fixes" rather
than just "fixes") or don't push out branches and tags that have the
same name.
