Perhaps I >> should be pulling from kernel.org, but github should work, no? I think "git pull" does not always give you all the tags. In doubt I do explicitly "git fetch --tag remote-name".

It should not be a problem to delete tags like it's no problem to delete branches. Only rebasing branches or re-creating conflicting tags could be annoying or at least confusing. cu, Rudi > Karel >
