#2473: using the branch option to choose a tag fails if using a git version 
older
than 1.7.10
--------------------+-----------------------

Priority:  major    |  Milestone:  undecided
 Version:  0.8.6p1  |   Keywords:  git
--------------------+-----------------------
 buildbot.steps.source.git.Git allows the use of a branch option to choose
 a branch or tag but will not work with a tag if the git version is older
 than 1.7.10. The issue and the workaround are discussed here:

 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14650146/git-couldnt-find-remote-ref-
 for-a-tag-or-commit-hash

 workaround is to pass 'refs/tags/<tag>' rather than just '<tag>' (tested
 and working)

 this should be detailed in the documentation
