I've been rather baffled why I can't checkout the latest Rowan tag from Jadeite; the project browser keeps saying it's got pr5 loaded no matter what I do.  It turns out that pr5 and pr6 have the same sha.  

If the same commit has two tags, and you checkout a git tag, the console should show that you have checked out the tag you requested...  It looks like jadeite or rowan is deliberately ignoring the request, since if I go and check out an older branch and then check out pr6, the console is correct.

this is what it is after I am on pr 5 and try to checkout pr6 from jadeite:
```
benton:/benton1/users/gsadmin/GS643215/myrowan/Rowan> git symbolic-ref -q --short HEAD || git describe --tags --exact-match
Oscar-3.1.0pre-release6
benton:/benton1/users/gsadmin/GS643215/myrowan/Rowan> git status
HEAD detached at Oscar-3.1.0pre-release5
nothing to commit, working directory clean
```
If I then checkout pr4, and then checkout pr6 again in jadeite,
```
benton:/benton1/users/gsadmin/GS643215/myrowan/Rowan> git symbolic-ref -q --short HEAD || git describe --tags --exact-match
Oscar-3.1.0pre-release6
benton:/benton1/users/gsadmin/GS643215/myrowan/Rowan> git status                                     HEAD detached at Oscar-3.1.0pre-release6
nothing to commit, working directory clean
```
Checkout git tag does nothing, if the sha are the same as the one loaded (3.1pr6)
