Although that should happen only if there are any new tags. Either you're wrong or there's a bug in git-fetch. I think you're missing the call to git-ls-remote --tags to get the list of tags (which we will then auto-follow if necessary). So in that case, there would actually be 3 ssh connections. If everything is up to date, we still make 2 connections (one to check refs from remotes file, and one to check remote tag list). -Peff - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
