When trying to check-out a signed tag I get the following Error: Unable to switch branches

Reason:
  Mapping commit: refs/tags/v1.3.1.1

And in details: Object XXX is not a commit.

The object ID shown is actually the id for the tag object and not the tagged commit.

This was tested with the latest master. It seemed commit 1f460e2 (Tests and fixes for dereferencing tags in Repository.resolve(), 2008-09-12) would fix it, but it didn't.

Thanks,
Jonas
