Last time I checked, unannotated tags are git-cloned and git-fetched just
fine. I'm not sure about the exact definition and behaviour of lightweight
tags, though.
CVS just doesn't attach any valuable info to the tags, it's just a point in
time.

Well, there's no mention about that in the docs. And I don't think that the
notion of git losing valid objects along the way is the good one =)
Anyways, the patch wasn't about the tag type change. As I mentioned it's just
a side effect. The main point is to fix the cvsimport tag breakage. I've
tested that change on a few big (and messy) CVS repos, and it works just
fine.
