Without this change, using non-github git repos as dependencies hits this function and crashes if they don't have any tags.
For example if you create a local yotta repo without tags, and then specify it as a dependency like this then it crashes:
dependencies: { "../mylib/.git" }
Note that I don't fully understand the code so it would benefit from review by someone more familiar. I wrote this patch by comparison with github_access.py. I have tested it and it works though.
