(i.e., a lightweight tag) is created.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>A GnuPG signed tag object will be created when <code>-s</code> or <code>-u | |
<keyid></code> is used. When <code>-u <keyid></code> is not used, the | |
committer identity for the current user is used to find the | |
GnuPG key for signing. The configuration variable <code>gpg.program</code> | |
is used to specify custom GnuPG binary.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Tag objects (created with <code>-a</code>, <code>-s</code>, or <code>-u</code>) are called "annotated" | |
tags; they contain a creation date, the tagger name and e-mail, a | |
tagging message, and an optional GnuPG signature. Whereas a | |
"lightweight" tag is simply a name for an object (usually a commit | |
object).</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Annotated tags are meant for release while lightweight tags are meant | |
for private or temporary object labels. For this reason, some git | |
commands for naming objects (like <code>git describe</code>) will ignore | |
lightweight tags by default.</p></div> | |

<h3 id="_on_re_tagging">On Re-tagging</h3> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>What should you do when you tag a wrong commit and you would | |
want to re-tag?</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you never pushed anything out, just re-tag it. Use "-f" to | |
replace the old one. And you’re done.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>But if you have pushed things out (or others could just read | |
your repository directly), then others will have already seen | |
the old tag. In that case you can do one of two things:</p></div> | |
<div class="olist arabic"><ol class="arabic"> | |
<li> | |
<p> | |
The sane thing. | |
Just admit you screwed up, and use a different name. Others have | |
already seen one tag-name, and if you keep the same name, you | |
may be in the situation that two people both have "version X", | |
but they actually have <em>different</em> "X"'s. So just call it "X.1" | |
and be done with it. | |
</p> | |
</li> | |
<li> | |
<p> | |
The insane thing. | |
You really want to call the new version "X" too, <em>even though</em> | |
others have already seen the old one. So just use <em>git tag -f</em> | |
again, as if you hadn’t already published the old one. | |
</p> | |
</li> | |
</ol></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>However, Git does <strong>not</strong> (and it should not) change tags behind | |
users back. So if somebody already got the old tag, doing a | |
<em>git pull</em> on your tree shouldn’t just make them overwrite the old | |
one.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If somebody got a release tag from you, you cannot just change | |
the tag for them by updating your own one. This is a big | |
security issue, in that people MUST be able to trust their | |
tag-names. If you really want to do the insane thing, you need | |
to just fess up to it, and tell people that you messed up. You | |
can do that by making a very public announcement saying:</p></div> | |
<div class="listingblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>Ok, I messed up, and I pushed out an earlier version tagged as X. I | |
then fixed something, and retagged the *fixed* tree as X again. | |
If you got the wrong tag, and want the new one, please delete | |
the old one and fetch the new one by doing: | |
git tag -d X | |
git fetch origin tag X | |
to get my updated tag. | |
You can test which tag you have by doing | |
git rev-parse X | |
which should return 0123456789abcdef.. if you have the new version. | |
Sorry for the inconvenience.</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Does this seem a bit complicated? It <strong>should</strong> be. There is no | |
way that it would be correct to just "fix" it automatically. | |
People need to know that their tags might have been changed.</p></div> | |
</div> | |
<div class="sect2"> | |
<h3 id="_on_automatic_following">On Automatic following</h3> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you are following somebody else’s tree, you are most likely | |
using remote-tracking branches (eg. <code>refs/remotes/origin/master</code>). | |
You usually want the tags from the other end.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>On the other hand, if you are fetching because you would want a | |
one-shot merge from somebody else, you typically do not want to | |
get tags from there. This happens more often for people near | |
the toplevel but not limited to them. Mere mortals when pulling | |
from each other do not necessarily want to automatically get | |
private anchor point tags from the other person.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Often, "please pull" messages on the mailing list just provide | |
two pieces of information: a repo URL and a branch name; this | |
is designed to be easily cut&pasted at the end of a <em>git fetch</em> | |
command line:</p></div> | |
<div class="listingblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>Linus, please pull from | |
git://git..../proj.git master | |
to get the following updates...</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>becomes:</p></div> | |
<div class="listingblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>$ git pull git://git..../proj.git master</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>In such a case, you do not want to automatically follow the other | |
person’s tags.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>One important aspect of Git is its distributed nature, which | |
largely means there is no inherent "upstream" or | |
"downstream" in the system. On the face of it, the above | |
example might seem to indicate that the tag namespace is owned | |
by the upper echelon of people and that tags only flow downwards, but | |
that is not the case. It only shows that the usage pattern | |
determines who are interested in whose tags.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>A one-shot pull is a sign that a commit history is now crossing | |
the boundary between one circle of people (e.g. "people who are | |
primarily interested in the networking part of the kernel") who may | |
have their own set of tags (e.g. "this is the third release | |
candidate from the networking group to be proposed for general | |
consumption with 2.6.21 release") to another circle of people | |
(e.g. "people who integrate various subsystem improvements"). | |
The latter are usually not interested in the detailed tags used | |
internally in the former group (that is what "internal" means). | |
That is why it is desirable not to follow tags automatically in | |
this case.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>It may well be that among networking people, they may want to | |
exchange the tags internal to their group, but in that workflow | |
they are most likely tracking each other’s progress by | |
having remote-tracking branches. Again, the heuristic to automatically | |
follow such tags is a good thing.</p></div> | |

<h3 id="_on_backdating_tags">On Backdating Tags</h3> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you have imported some changes from another VCS and would like | |
to add tags for major releases of your work, it is useful to be able | |
to specify the date to embed inside of the tag object; such data in | |
the tag object affects, for example, the ordering of tags in the | |
gitweb interface.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>To set the date used in future tag objects, set the environment | |
variable GIT_COMMITTER_DATE (see the later discussion of possible | |
values; the most common form is "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM").</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>For example:</p></div> | |
