About a link such as:
 http://git.zytor.com/syslinux/syslinux.git
  /tag/?id=syslinux-4.07

Q: shouldn't it be as follows?:
 http://git.zytor.com/syslinux/syslinux.git
  /tag/?id=refs/tags/syslinux-4.07

Isn't the current syntax (without explicitly using "refs/tags/")
in
conflict with the corresponding tag object (which seems to be currently
inactive / unsupported / failing in git.zytor.com, but it is valid in
other Syslinux repos):
 http://git.zytor.com/syslinux/syslinux.git
  /tag/?id=a4fcb6d867aadcaf5af8f87eb1ba96abe2748159

In other words, isn't the "refs/tags/" section of the link
required, so
to avoid any potential conflict between the tag *name* and the tag
*value*?

Perhaps I am misunderstanding the differences between "?id=",
"?id2="
and others ("h=", "hb="...) and when exactly each of them
should be
used in the links. If I am, please forgive my ignorance.

I wonder whether this potential conflict (if there is one) could
generate some problem, if not in git.zytor.com/syslinux/syslinux.git
itself, then perhaps in other repo(s) following it?

TIA,
Ady.
