Hi, When playing with the git repo, I see it still contains some heads with the name "tags" e.g. refs/heads/tags/release-0.9.9 One tool I have here tries to interpret refs/heads/tags (probably badly) and bails. Now this code should be more self tolerant, but having recently done some git-svn conversions, I wonder if we shouldn't fix up the legacy tag branches anyway? e.g. if we run this code, it'll sort out the old "tags": git for-each-ref --format='%(refname)' refs/heads/tags | cut -d / -f 4 | grep ^release- | sed 's/^release-//' | while read ref; do git tag "v$ref" "refs/heads/tags/release-$ref"; git branch -D "tags/release-$ref"; done git gc I've tested this before and after an rsync of the git repo and it seems to solve the problem. I just search for references via "grep -r tags/" This should find the refs of the tags... afer running the script above the refs/heads/tags/release-* branches are instead converted to tags. Does this make sense?
