perusing the current instructions on how to work with linux-next
here:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/linux-next.html
and i'm puzzled by this part of the instructions:
Fetch linux-next plus tags
$ git fetch linux-next
...
$ git fetch --tags linux-next
...
is it really necessary to run two separate fetch commands? from the
man page for git-fetch, one reads:
-t, --tags
Fetch all tags from the remote (i.e., fetch remote tags refs/tags/*
into local tags with
the same name), in addition to whatever else would otherwise be
fetched.
so would it not be sufficient to run simply:
$ git fetch --tags linux-next
or am i misreading something?
