Missing object of tag v2.6.14-rc3... unable to retrieve

I do not have a clue on this one; I am assuming that it is
coming from cg-fetch.

Quick question.  Is the source repository fully packed (i.e. git
repack followed by git prune)?  If that is the case there is

Yes, it is. I decided to run repack + update-server-info hoping  that
would help to cleanup the state.

nothing to worry about.  The latest git prunes empty
$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY/??/ directories and recreates them on
demand.

I see. Thanks.

error: Could not interpret tags/DENX-2005-10-02-18:30 as something to pull

This one I can answer.  It is the colon in your tag name.
Please rename it to make git-check-ref-format(1) happy, run
git-update-server-info(1) and try again.

Understood. Thanks.

Best regards,
