Description

@GoogleCodeExporter
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. git svn fetch
2.
Found possible branch point: https://xxx/svn/xxx/branches/11-07 D t-m => 
https://xxx/svn/xxx/branches/11-09 S t-m, 4332
fatal: Not a valid object name refs/remotes/1-11 M R 2.6
cat-file commit refs/remotes/1-11 M R 2.6: command returned error: 128

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
git version 1.7.9.5 on Ubuntu 12.04

Please provide any additional information below.

As workaround:
I've tried to create the tag manually, but it's not allowed.
$ git tag "11-07 D t-m" remotes/11-07%20D
fatal: '11-07 D t-m' is not a valid tag name.

I've tried:
- to create or rename tag manually as suggested here:
