When --prefix-tags is passed to `git remote add` the tagopt is set to
--prefix-tags and a second fetch line is added so tags are placed in
a separate hierarchy per remote.
For example:
$ git remote add -f --prefix-tags gbenchmark git@xxxxxxxxxx:google/benchmark

[remote "gbenchmark"]
url = git@xxxxxxxxxx:google/benchmark
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/gbenchmark/*
fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/remotes/tags/gbenchmark/*
tagopt = --prefix-tags
