Dear git,
git tag misses out some tags from this repo here, there seem to be too many to show:

https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux

It cuts the list short, losing either the latest ones with simply 
git tag
 or the earliest using either 
git tag  --sort=-creatordate
  or 
git tag --sort=-taggerdate

 Is there some config option somewhere to show the full list?

That sounds like an issue with the pager. Does `git --no-pager tag` show
all tags?

What do the following things return:

  echo $LESS
  echo $GIT_PAGER
  git config core.pager
  git config pager.tag
  
Kind regards, Kevin
