Yes, that's correct.

Hmm, I had 'fixes' checked out locally, and used regular git request-pull.

Oh! I know what it was. I pushed the branch before I pushed the tag,
so when I generated the request the branch had propagated out from ra
to git.kernel.org but not the tag.

Since the branch matched but no tag did, request-pull used it and took
the local tag contents for the message so I didn't notice the
difference.

Thanks for the sanity check, I'll double-check in the future.
