[haiku-development] Multiple tags on changeset 35632c5...

Hi there,

when working on the commit-mail hook a couple of days ago, each test-run of 
the script created a new hrev-tag by (my) mistake and attached it to the 
changeset 35632c5 (which has the correct hrev-tag 43278).

After I'd noticed, I checked and no-one had pushed anything, so it was safe 
to delete all those tags again. But (as has happened to mmu_man), if 
someone has pulled sometime inbetween, all those erraneous tags would have 
been pulled along, too.

How to find out if your local repository is ok: if

        git log --decorate

shows a single hrev-tag for the changeset 35632c5..., everything is fine.

If you see more than one hrev-tag attached to that changeset, please remove 
all the files in <your-haiku-repository>/.git/refs/tags and pull again - 
the tags should then be moved to their correct positions.

Alternatively (if you've done a 'git pack-refs'), the tags live in the 
textfile <your-haiku-repository>/.git/packed-refs and need to be removed by 
simply deleting the corresponding lines.

Sorry about that :-\

cheers,
        Oliver
