Do you have any comments about the performance issue that > Brandon brought up? Is that https://public-inbox.org/git/20180605212829.GG158365@xxxxxxxxxx/ ? (otherwise I'd be missing the performance issue) For now I'd filter out tags only if a specific tag is requested (i.e. the user given refspec contains "refs/tags/" -> no tag following) and then later I'd try out a date(?) based capability that asks for new tags only. Note that you can create old tags by backdating them, so we'd have to ask the server for any update in its reflog for refs/tags...
