I blame 'git remote update origin' for not pulling all tags that are not also reachable from a current branch; and since origin/branch-1.11 is no longer maintained, I no longer have a branch spec to pull in the new label by default. I had to do an explicit 'git fetch --tags origin' to get it, but now I see the label again. It really IS a good practice to keep a branch associated with all public long-lived tags; it doesn't waste any additional space in the git repo, and makes fetches pick up those tags with less effort. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
