That's fine - sleep is important ;)

I assume you've updated your cron job so this will happen
automatically in future (e.g. when we do Biopython 1.50 beta).

Yes, I've checked and I can get the tags with:
git pull -t ...
or,
git pull --tags ...
They also show up in github (near the top, drop down menu next to
branches) and in gitx (and I assume other GUI clients).
They have commit comments like "This commit was manufactured by
cvs2svn to create tag 'biopython-146'", which is fine.
However, all the tags seem to have associated with them the deletion
of the files AUTHORS and Bio/UniGene/UniGene.py which is rather odd.
If you can work out how this happened, would it be trivial to back
these tags out and redo it?

That makes sense.
