I haven't noticed this difference. It just seems to be the way cvs2got
handles tags.
This behavior does not seem to be controllable from the config file.
I'll try to ask on the
cvs2git mailing list.

In case it is not possible to change it in cvs2git itself, the worst
scenario would be to re-tag
the git tree manually (or with a help of some script). So there is no
risk of loosing tags.

I'll post when I have any progress onn this issue.

cheers
