Hi All,

I just finished setting up my git repository.
I was able to clone the git repo fine and pull Linus's latest  2.6.22-rc5 tree.

But i am not able to pull the tags using

$ cd /mnt/reiser/linux-2.6 [this dir holds Linus' tree]
$ git pull -t

I get following error :-

$fatal: 'origin': unable to chdir or not a git archive
fatal: unexpected EOF
Failed to find remote refs
warning: tag  ignored
fatal: 'origin': unable to chdir or not a git archive
fatal: unexpected EOF
Fetch failure: origin
No changes.

Ok i am fine with this as i have pulled Linus' tree successfully.
Now can i use my locally generated tag for the tree. i.e

$ git tag "Linux 2.6.22-rc5"

Is this acceptable?
Does this renders my pulled tree useless because i generated the tag locally?

Any help?

Thanks
psr
