Yes, that is expected.

This tag is so old that it dates to before a change in
the tag object format - in particular, before the 'tagger'
line was included. Viz:
$ git cat-file tag v0.99
object a3eb250f996bf5e12376ec88622c4ccaabf20ea8
type commit
tag v0.99
Test-release for wider distribution.
I'll make the first public RPM's etc, thus the tag.

Note the lack of a 'tagger' line, unlike a more up-to-date tag:
$ git cat-file tag v2.18.0
object 53f9a3e157dbbc901a02ac2c73346d375e24978c
type commit
tag v2.18.0

You can suppress this warning by using an fsck 'skiplist':
1) Add the following lines to your .git/config file:
[fsck]
skiplist = .git/skip
2) Add the object-id of the v0.99 tag to the skiplist file:
$ echo d6602ec5194c87b0fc87103ca4d67251c76f233a >.git/skip
Hope this helps.

I was working on the patch for wt-status.c and thought I screwed up my git
database. So I ran fsck and ran into the tag issue.
Thanks
