Ok, disabling "text flowing" seems to have fixed it. It still leaves empty 
spaces at the end of lines when doing normal word-wrapping in the editor 
(and then seems to use those empty spaces as a "marker" for flowing), but 
that's at least just a small silly detail.

So how about this patch now? With it you can do

	git fetch --tags <linus-kernel-repo>

and it should fetch all my tags automatically.
