I believe using real information for this questions is security 
threat. There's piece of conversation on bash that shows it:
A: Listen, may be we're relatives?
B: You think???
A: May be distant... What was the maiden name of your mother?
B: *encho
A: Oh, you have 8 new emails.

Actually, branches and tags are simple references. As I see in 
tools `master` and `2.066` points at single commit. So, new tag 
was pointing at that same commit.
