I am inclined to say that these messages are that recent Git barking
at a non-errors, and hopefully there is nothing other than ignoring
them you have to do until it gets fixed.

But if you decide to recreate tags, there are a few things to keep
in mind:

 * You would get a different object name, of course.  You would
   likely to get different timestamps (you can export the desired
   timestamp in GIT_COMMITTER_DATE, though).

 * Those who fetched from you and already have these tags will not
   get the updated one by default.  They need to force fetch them.
