Fortunalely, I cannot give you this repo, it's is corporate stuff. But I've made a little script (attached here: git_tags_export_test.sh ) that produce a small git repo with few tags that illustrated it enought. You can look at the git repo graph with gitk after running the script, and compare it with the fossil exported one.. regards -- Martin
