Or, just dereferencing tags for commit parents in commit-tree
would be fine as well.

------------
Dereference tags given as commit-tree -p parameters.

Marc Singer noticed that when he has a tag instead of a commit
in his .git/HEAD (this happens after git checkout -f <tag>), git
commit barfs.  This patch makes commit-tree dereference tags
like everybody else does.
