What about adding the still existing Org repo temporarily and fetching
the tags from there?

Example:

cd PATHTOORGMODE
git remote -v
git remote add olderrepo https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode.git
git remote -v
git fetch olderrepo 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'
git remote remove olderrepo
git remote -v

Enjoy the tags in your local repo!

I guess the maintainers will push the right tags to the new repo soon.
