This information is left for a later merge operation done by "git merge". +When <refspec> stores the fetched result in tracking branches, +the tags that point at these branches are automatically +followed. This is done by first fetching from the remote using +the given <refspec>s, and if the repository has objects that are +pointed by remote tags that it does not yet have, then fetch +those missing tags.
