This quickie Python script should convert the "tag branches" to regular
Git tags:
import os
refs = os.popen('git-for-each-ref --format="%(objectname)%00%(refname)%00" refs/remotes/tags')
for line in refs:
[sha, ref] = line.split('\0')[:2]
os.system('git tag %s %s' % (ref[18:], sha))

Once you are done importing, you can delete that directory.
