Re: [PATCH] git-fetch --tags: deal with tags with spaces in them.

Dear diary, on Wed, Oct 12, 2005 at 07:29:45AM CEST, I got a letter
where Junio C Hamano [off-list ref] told me that...

I do not personally think it is too much of a restriction if we
said we only allow tags using letters from [-a-zA-Z0-9.] (yes I
am trying to be controversial by not allowing even latin-1
names).

I think this is perfectly reasonable, as long as you also throw _ to the
set. ;-) Actually, cg-tag now already does at least

(echo $name | egrep -qv '[^a-zA-Z0-9_.@!:-]') || \
        die "name contains invalid characters"

but I'm in no way emotionally attached to the @!: characters.
