Hi =)



Last time I checked, unannotated tags are git-cloned and git-fetched just 
fine. I'm not sure about the exact definition and behaviour of lightweight 
tags, though. 

CVS just doesn't attach any valuable info to the tags, it's just a point in 
time.


Well, there's no mention about that in the docs. And I don't think that the 
notion of git losing valid objects along the way is the good one =)

Anyways, the patch wasn't about the tag type change. As I mentioned it's just 
a side effect. The main point is to fix the cvsimport tag breakage. I've 
tested that change on a few big (and messy) CVS repos, and it works just 
fine.

Cheers,
