Something you want to be careful about.  When you force push a branch, on
the next pull everybody finds out about it via the discrepancy between
branch and origin/branch.  But I think if you force change a tag, everybody
that has already pulled that tag will keep the old version.  Git won't
auto-update an existing tag in a local repo.  Now it might not be a problem
if you don't have a lot of contributors pulling your repo frequently, but
you should make them aware on your *-dev list.  If they delete the tag and
pull again, they'll get the correct tag.

Later,
Paul
