Hi. I am working on a repo on my desktop and I got a clone on my laptop. I needed to pull the new stuff from my desktop unto my laptop, and I noticed that tags doesn't get pulled. The laptop access the desktop using NFS and I am using "git pull NFS_SOURCE". The repos are identical except that a few files has been updated and a new tag has been added. Why doesn't pull get the tag? Best regards.

Try git pull --tags.
From git-pull's manpage:
-t
--tags
Most of the tags are fetched automatically as branch
heads are downloaded, but tags that do not point at
objects reachable from the branch heads that are being
tracked will not be fetched by this mechanism. This
flag lets all tags and their associated objects be
downloaded. [...]

But what does "but tags that do not point at objects reachable from the branch heads that are being tracked will not be fetched by this mechanism" mean? When is an object not reachable from the branch head? In the repo only the master branch exist, and one repo is cloned from the other.
