Someone maybe like me is working in the way of following one central
git repository
while sometimes need to fetch some code or tags from a 3rd git repo,
but unfortunately the 3rd repo may contain a lot of tags not all I want
to fetch to mess up my local repo, at this time I want to fetch only one tag
from the 3rd repo, but the syntax of
`git fetch 3rd-repo the-tag-name`
really fetched the code of the-tag-name from 3rd-repo, but forgot the
tag itself;
this patch enhanced the above syntax to create the tag itself;
