You need to add the stable tree if you want those tags too. I always
forget the invocation of most git commands, such as the command to add
remotes, but this is my config:
$ grep stable .git/config
[remote "linux-stable"]
url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/linux-stable/*
Hope this helps,
