------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah, we can't clean tags from this ref

{code}

refs/heads/trunk
refs/heads/master
refs/heads/rel/
refs/tags/rel/

{code}

A lot of them are left over from when we imported the Apigee's  git repo into the Apache git.  If I prepare a list of commands to remove old tags, could they be executed by someone that can get around this issue?

> Hey guys,
>   We're in the process of cleaning up old tags in our git repo.  I'm trying to remove a tag, yet I'm told that it doesn't exist on the remote.  However, I can see it in our github mirror here.
> https://github.com/apache/usergrid/tree/2.1.working
> Here is the command I'm using to remove the remote
> {code}
> git push origin :refs/tags/2.1-working
> remote: warning: Deleting a non-existent ref.
> To https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/usergrid.git
>  - [deleted]         2.1-working
> {code}
> Is there a different command I need to use with Apache Git?
> Thanks,
> Todd
