Haven't looked at any of the 1-15 messages, but the basic design to
demote "--tags" from being an explicit "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*"
given from the command line to a more special case option sounds
very sane and solid.
With the auto-following of tags, I think it is a _mistake_ to have
"--tags" anywhere on the command line (and "tagopt" config) these
days, and I do not expect a huge fallout from incompatibility that
arises from the change in behaviour.
Thanks---looking forward to reading it through.
