[BUG} git-fetch - won't fetch wildcarded tags

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



git fetch does not seem to handle refs/tags/* refspecs, at least no from bundles...

git>git bundle create /tmp/foo v1.5.2
<snip>
git>git ls-remote /tmp/foo
8b1e5575ab18757272e86c5ec7a10411bbaa3662        refs/tags/v1.5.2
git>git tag -d v1.5.2
Deleted tag v1.5.2.
git>git fetch /tmp/foo 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'
* refusing to create funny ref 'tags/*' locally


Huh?

but...
git>git fetch /tmp/foo 'refs/tags/v1.5.2:refs/tags/v1.5.2'
* refs/tags/v1.5.2: storing tag 'v1.5.2' of /tmp/foo
 tag: 8b1e557

What's going on? This is a severe limitation of the utility of bundles to transmit tagged versions.
