I want to update users/hjl/linux/release/2.26.51.0.1 tag by
removing it fist. I got
# git push origin :users/hjl/linux/release/2.26.51.0.1
remote: *** Deleting a tag is not allowed in this repository
remote: error: hook declined to update
refs/tags/users/hjl/linux/release/2.26.51.0.1
Auto packing the repository for optimum performance.
warning: There are too many unreachable loose objects; run 'git prune'
to remove them.

Changing the target of a tag is considered to be a really bad idea.
I have to run, but you can look it up on the web as to why.
I can delete the tag for you, but regardless, I recommend you use
another one. This happened to me too when I was creating an earlier
GDB release, so it's really important to be careful when creating
them...

Can you delete it for me? Thanks.
BTW, can you also prune the git repo? It has too many unreachable
objects.
