I new it was rebuilt every day, but for some reason I expected git to
fetch all new tags. But that's wrong, it just fetches whatever
branch(es) you request and then only tags that happen to reference stuff
on that branch; from git-fetch(1): "By default, any tag that points into
the histories being fetched is also fetched; the effect is to fetch tags
that point at branches that you are interested in. This default behavior
can be changed by using the --tags or --no-tags options or by
configuring remote.<name>.tagOpt. By using a refspec that fetches tags
explicitly, you can fetch tags that do not point into branches you are
interested in as well."

Sorry for the confusion!
