Is this a lightweight tag or annotated tag?
Read this section of the docs. It may clarify things.

It looks like the explanation is even simpler.
I assume you're referring to this build, for example. It's not a result of a tag push so APPVEYOR_REPO_TAG should evaluate to false. What makes you believe it's an error?
