Error: Cannot export nested tags unless --mark-tags is specified.

In trying to use RepoExtractor today, I was hit with:

❯ ./extract_repo.bash -r "GEOSldas" -d "GEOSldas_GridComp" --newrepo "GEOSldas_GridComp" --develop --create-repo --push

After searching the internet, I encountered newren/git-filter-repo#523 and it's accompanying PR: newren/git-filter-repo#526 (Thanks to @vpa1977)

So, before I was using brew's git-filter-repo but now I did:

gh repo clone newren/git-filter-repo
cd git-filter-repo
gh pr checkout 526

and made a symlink to it in ~/bin.

Until @newren updates the main git-filter-repo, this will need to be done when using this script. I'll add info to the README.md.
