You can specify a refspec when fetching from the bundle to fetch only the objects you care about, like: cd linux-5.8 git fetch /path/to/bundle 'refs/tags/v5.9-rc1:refs/tags/v5.9-rc1' (or if you prefer, "git fetch /path/to/bundle 'tag v5.9-rc1'"). Then once you have the objects locally, you can merge it into your HEAD. You can do all of that in one step with: git pull /path/to/bundle 'refs/tags/v5.9-rc1' There's no such thing as 'git bundle apply' though, although I suspect 'git pull' is what you wanted anyway.
