Hi,

I have full clone of Vim repository [1] on my computer. This repo has 
tags for each commit, meaning that when there is a new commit landed on 
default (master) branch, it will be tagged (something close to release 
tags but not same).

While on the other repo, doing git fetch will fetch new commits from the 
remote quickly (the only limit is network bandwidth), on vim repo it 
takes longer.

Examining the trace (run by `GIT_TRACE=1 git fetch`), I got:

git fetch took about 100 seconds to complete, including fetching 3 new 
tags. On the other repo, the same command took around 10-20 seconds, 
depending on how large data that must be downloaded.

Note that Vim repo has 13952 commits and 12284 tags; and for testing 
above I use Git 2.31.1.

Thanks.
