as i wrote before, i'm pulling, not pushing, so any differences could be blamed on that (or git version 1.7.12.23.g948900e). anyway, it seems this new version does fetch the tags under the remotes' namespaces, after all - but it still imports them into the global tag namespace as well, which of course makes a mess with the duplicated tags.

and for many repos i'm getting something like this (this is kinda new):

Fetching qtbase remote: Counting objects: 62375, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (28049/28049), done. remote: Total 55704 (delta 45280), reused 36646 (delta 27368) Receiving objects: 100% (55704/55704), 16.76 MiB | 4.94 MiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (45280/45280), completed with 3017 local objects. fatal: bad object 90f0f499ec5953d60d616a2ff541ecaf8b0c31a2 error: ../qt5/qtbase did not send all necessary objects

both the aggregator and the fetched repos run cleanly through fsck.
