In one of them I've used fetch for maint and master, but not pull (i.e. maint and master are behind origin/maint and origin/master).  This one doesn't see the tag.  On the other one I've used pull to keep the local branches up to date.  There must be something about Git I don't understand.  Actually, there's a lot about it I don't understand well.

Huh. That’s strange, retrieving tags is fetch’s job and pull is just fetch + merge. Do the tags appear if you merge origin/maint into maint on the “fetched” repo? Use —ff-only to make sure you don’t get a gratuitous merge commit.
