I have a bunch of tags in my repo that have been cloned from linus. So
the tags do move through the system. But it seems that they need a
commit to make them move, apparently creating a new tag doesn't count
as a commit (and make a new tree head id).

[jonsmirl@jonsmirl .git]$ ls refs/tags
v2.6.11  v2.6.11-tree  v2.6.12-rc2  v2.6.12-rc3  v2.6.12-rc4 
v2.6.12-rc5  v2.6.12-rc6
