(please keep me in CC) Was just busy constructing a tree and noticed a "problem" -- no doubt caused by me, but help appreciated. I clone linus' kernel tree into ./local, then do a git checkout -b v22 v2.6.22 to get a 2.6.22 branch. I like to have a simple "git pull" while on this branch pull from the upstream stable tree, so as advised earlier, I put: [branch "v22"] remote = linux-2.6.22.y merge = refs/heads/master [remote "linux-2.6.22.y"] url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.22.y.git fetch = refs/heads/master in ./git/config. "git pull" now indeed works nicely. I just noticed now though that this doesn't automatiically fetches tags as well. That is, no v2.6.22.x tags after that. "git fetch --tags" (or git pull --tags directly, I assume) gets them without problem, but I was expecting they'd be fetched automatically. Should they? Can they? Can I put anything in the config so they will? Rene.
