micahel, that was done on purpose to be able to 'match' before and after conversion. each repos before conversion had a given tag... I renamed them prefixing the old repo name in order to preserve what that tag was in that repos. it is not very obvious how to use it, but modulo some scripting and or some gitk/git rev-list trickery it is possible to use tat information to some-how still navigate the old history. btw: gitk --date-order is useful for these case (you'll see all these similar tag clumped together) In few month/ few years... if you want to have an idea in which version a given commit was done... these tag will prove useful.
