git is noticing that the server did not automatically send the tags and is performing a second fetch. This second fetch is completely different from the first one, so atm I don't think libgit2 should emulate that behaviour since we implement the underlying functionality, not the UI git wants to provide.

@carlosmn Thanks for this explanation. Do you think LibGit2Sharp should mimic git behavior?

I think so - or at least a way to have it fetch with "expected" behavior. If someone wanted the "underlying functionality" behavior, maybe we could expose that as an advanced method.
As a writer of an application calling into lg2#'s fetch, I would expect for it to fetch tags (and not have to handle that in my application).
