git request-pull seems to look for branches before tags when generating
this text.  It just did exactly the same thing for me (since the tag I created
also pointed to my "next" branch).

This would seem to be the common case for people following the rules
and sending you stuff in the merge window that they have had cooking
in linux-next.  Can "request-pull" be smarter - or is their some magic I should
be using on the "git request-pull" command line that will tell it that I really
mean the tag and not the branch?

Or is "smarter" already in a newer version of git - I have:

$ git --version
git version 1.7.9.5
