Interesting! I didn't know about git fetch --tags, that worked. But yes, it's not on a branch. We'll use this for our tests. Thanks everyone!

How did you update? Git will only fetch tags from the server if you tell
it to do so, for example "git fetch --tags".

The tag interestingly resides on a commit without a branch though, it
sits on 671a5eb3fa2cf29f7e9d7a877e22335fb503934a.

So I guess what happened is that Moritz created a tag, then moved the
commit to some place else (which in essence is creating a new commit
with its own hash). BUT as tags are just bookmarks to commit hashes this
does not automatically adjust the tag.

TL;DR the tag is worthless and needs to be reset by the author.

As a workaround tag eacc846be7cf4026eb8e8f6eaa577082d826da2e as you
proposed, Moritz should do that for the call-cc.org repo.

Sorry,

Christian
