I have slave repositaries which are cloned of the baseline which I do my development in. However when I bring the master branch of these work repositaries upto date (via git-pull ../baseline master) I find the tag objects are lost. Should they not be part of the tree? After all when I sync to Linus's kernel repo I get all his version tags as part of that.
You have to use "git pull ../baseline master:somewhere". This "master:somewhere" expression makes git fetch and stores the tags along with the branch' commits. Better yet, create an entry in remotes: .git/remotes or .git/config, depending on the version of git you have. The current master on kernel.org has the support for latter (branches in .git/config), which will also be in the upcoming release 1.5. - To unsubscribe from this list: 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
