I got the impression that the latest git was supposed to do\nthat automatically with a git pull.\n\n\nErik\n\n-- \n+-- Erik Mouw -- www.harddisk-recovery.com -- +31 70 370 12 90 --\n| Lab address: Delftechpark 26, 2628 XH, Delft, The Netherlands\n"},{"id":"11145","messageId":"7vll04tdsz.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net","threadId":"2347","inReplyTo":"20051104160503.GC23790@harddisk-recovery.com","subject":"Re: Tags not transferred with git pull?","fromName":"Junio C Hamano","fromEmail":"junkio@cox.net","sentAt":"2005-11-04T19:26:20Z","receivedAt":"2005-11-04T19:26:20Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"gitster@pobox.com","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/54884?v=4"},"body":"Erik Mouw writes:\n\n> Ah, right.

The barebone Porcelainish shipped with\ngit-core does not fetch and store tags unconditionally under the\nsame name as the remote has without being told; you need to\nexplicitly tell it to 'git fetch --tags'.\n\nWhat was added recently was a low level support for Cogito to\nimplement the automatic tracking. This is supposed to (I do not\noffhand know if the Cogito side has been updated to do so\nalready) work a bit differently. Instead of grabbing all tags\nand all objects reachable from them, as you fetch commits from\nthe remote, the automatic tracking fetches tags that point at\nthem. What this means is that the tags on the remote branch you\nare tracking would be fetched automatically but tags on a remote\nbranch you are not interested in are not.\n"},{"id":"11251","messageId":"20051107104408.GA7283@harddisk-recovery.com","threadId":"2347","inReplyTo":"7vll04tdsz.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net","subject":"Re: Tags not transferred with git pull?","fromName":"Erik Mouw","fromEmail":"erik@harddisk-recovery.com","sentAt":"2005-11-07T10:44:08Z","receivedAt":"2005-11-07T10:44:08Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"erik@harddisk-recovery.com","avatar":null},"body":"On Fri, Nov 04, 2005 at 11:26:20AM -0800, Junio C Hamano wrote:\n> Sorry for the confusion.
