I haven't thought much about this problem but it seems to me you're winding up with tags in your reconstructed repository that are not the same as the tags in the "real" repository, and this may be causing some problems. I could picture you wanting to do this if you were tragically low on disk space but until you get some success at actually building a release, you might be better off stucking to a more "normal" setup. Good luck!
