Hi,
Take a repo with multiple remotes. These remotes each have a specific
branch/tag naming convention, and there are tags in each that conflict with
those in other remotes. In order to avoid conflicts, it seems possible to add
something like this to the '.git/config' file:
[remote "origin"]
url = [email protected]:schacon/simplegit-progit.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/origin/*
This is discussed here:

http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Internals-The-Refspec
However, when you try to pull in these tags, you'll see two different sets of
tags - one with the prefix ('origin' above) and one without. Why is this? Is
this a bug, or by design?
If this is not the recommended approach to avoid conflicts, could someone
suggest a better one?
Regards,
Stephen Finucane
