Below is a small bash script I found online sometime back for purposes
of migrating svn debian package repositories to git. It can be modified
(remove the "debian/" from git tag) for purposes of porting the tags
over.

#!/bin/bash

for branch in `git branch -r`; do
    if [ `echo $branch | egrep "tags/.+$"` ]; then
        version=`basename $branch`
        subject=`git log -1 --pretty=format:"%s" $branch`
        export GIT_COMMITTER_DATE=`git log -1 --pretty=format:"%ci" $branch`

        echo "Tag $version [Y/n]?"
        read yesno
        if [ -z $yesno ] || [ $yesno = "Y" ]; then
            git tag -s -f -m "$subject" "debian/$version" "$branch^"
            git branch -d -r $branch
        fi
    fi
done
