FYI, this seems to have broken compatibility with ancient versions
of git.  prairiedog and gaur/pademelon are both using
git version 1.7.9.6, and they both choked on the --prune-tags
option.  I tried removing that, as it seemed possibly unnecessary,
but it didn't improve matters.

I suppose I'm overdue to update git on these machines, but anyone
else running dinosaur versions may want to be cautious.
