I probably should have taken that out of the mail; I put it in there
before I noticed that merge never grabbed move/delete'd tags.


Now, it IS a little blink-inducing when merge returns with "Nothing to
do.", even though it DID pull a new tag over (and ditto for pull
saying 'No revisions to pull', and then pulling a tag).  I'm not sure
where the best line to draw about the amount of information given is,
though.
