When performing tag following, in addition to using the server's
"include-tag" capability to send tag objects (and emulating it if the
server does not support that capability), "git fetch" relies upon the
presence of refs/tags/* entries in the initial ref advertisement to
locally create refs pointing to the aforementioned tag objects. When
using protocol v2, refs/tags/* entries in the initial ref advertisement
may be suppressed by a ref-prefix argument, leading to the tag object
being downloaded, but the ref not being created.
Commit dcc73cf7ff ("fetch: generate ref-prefixes when using a configured
refspec", 2018-05-18) ensured that "refs/tags/" is always sent as a ref
prefix when "git fetch" is invoked with no refspecs, but not when "git
fetch" is invoked with refspecs. Extend that functionality to make it
work in both situations.
