Please just ask my to pull the tag directly, don't say "please pull
this branch", and then add "oh, but there's this tag also".

I already did the "cut-and-paste" for the pull, and then I realized
that I'm not seeing the message that your email implied was there, and
then I noticed that you talked about the tag separately.

That just messes everything up. Don't even bother mentioning the
worthless branch. The tag has everything the branch has, _and_ the
message.

So just ask me to pull it, with a

Please pull from

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cjb/mmc.git
mmc-fixes-for-3.4-rc2

rather than make it unnecessarily more complicated and error-prone.
