You're adding a remote repository and tracking branches and tags from
it.
- Then i do git fetch or git fetch drm-intel, but nothing happens, and git
branch -r still only show me origin/HEAD and origin/master, no drm-intel
branches, though these branches do exist since i can see them with git
remote -v show drm-intel
You didn't add any remote tracking *branch*, you added a remote and
gave it the name "drm-intel". You could just as well do:
git remote add --tags some-random-name
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel.git
Also because you specified --tags you're only getting the tags on "git
fetch", if you don't do that then:
$ git fetch some-random-name

remote: Compressing objects: 100% (377/377), done.
remote: Total 488 (delta 371), reused 146 (delta 111)

From git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel
* [new branch] drm-intel-fixes -> some-random-name/drm-intel-fixes
* [new branch] drm-intel-fixes-2 -> some-random-name/drm-intel-fixes-2
* [new branch] drm-intel-next -> some-random-name/drm-intel-next
* [new branch] drm-intel-staging -> some-random-name/drm-intel-staging
Which allows you to do:
$ git checkout --track some-random-name/drm-intel-fixes
Branch drm-intel-fixes set up to track remote branch
drm-intel-fixes from some-random-name.
Switched to a new branch 'drm-intel-fixes'
You're right, the faulty option was --tags. Trying without this i was
able to fetch.
