Looks like the tag point to a tree. I remember I have read the code about the related problem.

I believe this is a git's edgecase which only happen on linux itself. Maybe we need some trick to ignore it to avoid failure on gitea.

NOTE! There's no commit for this, since it happened before I started with git.
Eventually we'll import some sort of history, and that should tie this tree
object up to a real commit. In the meantime, this acts as an anchor point for
doing diffs etc under git.
