Hi people.
(please keep me in CC)
Was just busy constructing a tree and noticed a "problem" -- no doubt caused
by me, but help appreciated.
I clone linus' kernel tree into ./local, then do a
git checkout -b v22 v2.6.22
to get a 2.6.22 branch. I like to have a simple "git pull" while on this
branch pull from the upstream stable tree, so as advised earlier, I put:
[branch "v22"]
remote = linux-2.6.22.y
merge = refs/heads/master
[remote "linux-2.6.22.y"]
url =
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.22.y.git
fetch = refs/heads/master
in ./git/config. "git pull" now indeed works nicely.
I just noticed now though that this doesn't automatiically fetches tags as
well. That is, no v2.6.22.x tags after that. "git fetch --tags" (or git pull
--tags directly, I assume) gets them without problem, but I was expecting
they'd be fetched automatically.
Should they? Can they? Can I put anything in the config so they will?
Rene.
