Hi,

the other 4 patches look good to me (fixing a few typos/thinkos). However, I think there must be a way to fetch tags for clones, when it is possible for fetches. Especially since fetch gets closer to including the features needed for "clone" (regexes for remote names, storing packs, ...)

Ciao, Dscho

P.S.: I just realized that send-pack and receive-pack are not at all aware of shallow repos. Maybe both should check for a shallow repo, and die() on it?
