I'm not sure that I understand the difference between tags and annotated tags.

Anyway, if I move to the master branch, I see the following tags:

[erez.zilber@erez-lx:/tmp/open-iscsi.git]$ ls .git/refs/tags/
2.0-868-rc1  2.0-869  2.0-869.1  2.0-869.2  2.0-869-rc2  2.0-869-rc3
2.0-869-rc4  2.0-870-rc1
[erez.zilber@erez-lx:/tmp/open-iscsi.git]$ git-tag
2.0-868-rc1
2.0-869
2.0-869-rc2
2.0-869-rc3
2.0-869-rc4
2.0-869.1
2.0-869.2
2.0-870-rc1

However:
[erez.zilber@erez-lx:/tmp/open-iscsi.git]$ git-describe --tags
2.0-868-rc1-81-g31c9d42

I was expecting to see 2.0-870-rc1 here.
