The tags are out there:
http://oss.sgi.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=xfs/cmds/xfsprogs.git;a=tags

The release script doesn't push tags, just reminds you to do so.  ;)

IMO it's probably a good idea not automate pushing tags, so you have
opportunity to hit the breaks and double check your work before posting a tag
publicly.

That's an interesting idea.  We hadn't discussed a 3.1.12 release.  No
particular objection to doing that, it's just that we didn't branch for the
v3.0.5->v3.1.0 set of releases.  Maybe it is better if we all focus on 3.2.0.

Regards,
