This suggests to me that your local git repository isn't up to date. The tag has been moved at least once since it was created, and it sounds like your repository is behind the most recent move of the tag. Note: if you use git fetch --all, that will fetch new tags but doesn't update old ones that have moved - you need to explicitly run git fetch --tags.
