That's a separate problem that indeed happens frequently. We already
have discovered many packages with missing tags. The problem with the
wrong IDs doesn't seem to be caused by different developers working on
the repo, since the cases so far were with packages that had commits
basically from a single person. It would really be worthwhile to track down
the cause of this. Could have some more severe side-effects, that we
don't yet know about.

Iain, if you want to combine these two commands into one "Shell Return"
just do
$ git push --all; git push --tags
or make an alias like
$ alias git-push-all-incl-tags="git push --all; git push --tags"
