Cloning a tag fails during checkout about isomorphic-git HOT 6 CLOSED

Yes, tag support isn't at 100% yet. I'll add a test for cloning by tag name and see I can get that to pass. It might be as simple as passing {tags: true} to fetch during clone.

OK, think I found a fix. It was a little more subtle than I expected. Passing tags: true to fetch was the first step. But then, because tags are not stored under "refs/heads/remotes" like remote branches but in "refs/tags", it was erroneously telling the server "I already have that commit" when it was trying to clone it.

The callstack it fails with:

Error: Could not resolve reference origin/tag-name
    at Function.resolve (managers.js:372)
    at <anonymous>

I had the same thought and tried defaulting tags = true but it didn't help so there might be something else.
