But I agree, overall I > would expect the release tags to match the release tarballs. To be a bit blunt, that's simply not reasonable. There are a number of files and directories, not the least diverse git related files, that are never going to make it into the tarball. Have a look at .gitattributes, you have a number of patterns there with the attribute 'export-ignore'. Those are files that don't make it into the tarball.
