[[!tag patch]] [[!template id=gitbranch branch=smcv/ready/no-tags author="[[smcv]]"]]

The gitremotes script picks up tags from any repository, including those used for local .debs that were never actually present in Debian:

smcv@reptile% git tag | grep -c nmu
52

This can be avoided with the tagopt = --no-tags option in .git/config; see http://git.pseudorandom.co.uk/smcv/ikiwiki.git?a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ready/no-tags

done thanks. Also cleared propigated tags out of origin.

Hmm, in testing I still see tags get pulled the first time a remote is added. If those are then locally deleted, it doesn't pull them again with the --no-tags. --[[Joey]]

Oh, I see why. Try the same branch again... --[[smcv]]
