Sort of. 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.

Thanks,
Taylor
