The auto-following is done by detecting tags that are fetched, so when you did a pull using rsync the tags weren't auto-followed but you got all the commits. Next, when you changed protocol to git:// you already had all the commit objects, so there was nothing to auto-detect tags on. Since you're using git:// now it should work as advertised in the future though. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231
