so here it is:

if one use dr get --tag, then it always fetches all the patches from the
repo, then unapplies some of them. it would be nice if darcs would not
fetch & apply those patches to save a lot of time

thanks,

I've confirmed this issue still exists with Darcs2 currently. Using
"--debug-verbose", darcs very clearly reports that it "got" all the patches,
and then "unapplied" back to the tag.

This was marked as a dupe of issue755, but that's fixed and this is still 
an issue at least in some cases.
