:Hi:
:
:The git repository has two annotated tags
: v2.6.0
: v2.7.0
:which replace v2.5.1 .
:
:The commit log/email for both the tags is identical.
:
:Can the experienced folks share the rationale behind having two 
:annotated tags ?
:
:--
:thanks
:Saifi.

    The tags are basically used by the kernel build to figure out
    the version string it sticks in the dmesg, and presumably by
    the pkgsrc bulk build system too but I'm not sure.

    The tags shouldn't be used for checkouts.  Use the branch name
    instead.
