Since 88a21979c (fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessary) all fetched commits are examined if they contain submodule changes (unless configuration or command line options inhibit that). If a newly recorded submodule commit is not present in the submodule, a fetch is run inside it to download that commit. Checking new refs was done in an else branch where it wasn't executed for tags. This normally isn't a problem because tags are only fetched with the branches they live on, then checking the new commits in the fetched branches for submodule commits will also process all tags. But when a specific tag is fetched (or the refspec contains refs/tags/) commits only reachable by tags won't be searched for submodule commits, which is a bug. Fix that by moving the code outside the if/else construct to handle new tags just like any other ref. The performance impact of adding tags that most of the time lie on a branch which is checked anyway for new submodule commit should be minimal, as since 6859de4 (fetch: avoid quadratic loop checking for updated submodules) all ref-tips are collected first and then fed to a single rev-list.

GIT - the stupid content tracker
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival
sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
