In some versions of git, it makes separate connections to find out what 
the remote's state is and to fetch the actual data. A third connection 
should only be needed if there are new tags to fetch, and that would be 
after some of the messages.

One of the changes in the upcoming release is to reduce this to one, 
except for an occasional second one.
