svn2git does not create tags when nested in a sub directory

My SVN repo is structured as follows

Project/branch/trunk
...
Project/tags
  1.0.0
  1.0.1
  1.0.2
  1.1.0
  2.0.0

I run the following command to create the git repo

svn2git http://svn.example.com/path/to/repo --trunk Project/branch/trunk --tags Project/tags --nobranches

svn2git imports the trunk fine, however all the tags are missing

$ git branch
* master
  trunk@1387
$  git tag -l
[ empty ]

What is output if you do git tag -a

?

I have the same issue.

I've also been having issues with importing tags. I have a single SVN repo with multiple folders (one per project) and I'm running svn2git along the lines of:
svn2git svn+ssh://repo.example.org/svn/project-folder --verbose

This works fine and I can see the tags being detected properly and added to the new Git repo, however when the import has finished and I try git tag -l there is nothing there.

I've been able to "fix" the issue by modifying the svn2git gem and commenting out migration.rb:239 run_command("git branch -d -r \"#{escape_quotes(tag)}\"")

This seems to produce the desired results, but I'm not sure if I'm leaving a mess behind in the Git repo by doing so...?
