The tag. It's done this because I generated the request too soon after pushing the tag so the tag wasn't on the server but the branch was and it's not done the right thing with the error handling.
Interesting. So, git is too clever and gives the alternative automatically...?
Sort of - AIUI it just looks for something on the remote end that is at the appropriate commit (which is what it's always done). When the tag support was added it should probably have been modified to check that if a tag was specified to generate the pull request it's found the tag rather than the commit.
