The fixes are only for the code path where reference expressions needs
to be resolved. From what I understand, the problem you have
encountered is due to resolve() falling back to using resolveSimple()
which doesn't dereference any tags. Perhaps EGit could postfix ^{} or
^{commit} to the tag name before calling mapCommit(), or whatever it
uses?
