Sorry those are tags not branches.

On a newly updated linux-next I get:
[raven@pluto linux-next.git]$ git show d14b746c6c1c
fatal: ambiguous argument 'd14b746c6c1c': unknown revision or path not in the
working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

So I guess I'm confused ...

Are you sure some thing's not amiss somewhere here?
