        <pre>Turns out this was because the configuration included
transfer.fsckObjects=true. Without that option, git does not check the received
objects.

git fsck reports:

Corresponding to the tags:

RELEASE_0_9_2
RELEASE_1_0_0
RELEASE_1_0_2
SNAPSHOT_0_1_1
SNAPSHOT_0_1_2
SNAPSHOT_0_1_3
SNAPSHOT_0_1_4
SNAPSHOT_0_1_5
SNAPSHOT_0_1_6

Still, I think the repository should not include bad tags. Maybe they can be
recreated with something like this:

fixup() {
  GIT_COMMITTER_DATE="$(git log -1 --pretty=%cI $1)" \
  git -c user.name='Carl Worth' -c user.email='<a href="mailto:cworth@cworth.org">cworth@cworth.org</a>' \
      tag -f -m '' $1 $1'^{commit}'
}</pre>
