@ -20,6 +20,14 @@ The ref names and their object names of fetched refs are stored
|
||||
in `.git/FETCH_HEAD`. This information is left for a later merge
|
||||
operation done by "git merge".
|
||||
|
||||
When <refspec> stores the fetched result in tracking branches,
|
||||
the tags that point at these branches are automatically
|
||||
followed. This is done by first fetching from the remote using
|
||||
the given <refspec>s, and if the repository has objects that are
|
||||
pointed by remote tags that it does not yet have, then fetch
|
||||
those missing tags. If the other end has tags that point at
|
||||
branches you are not interested in, you will not get them.
