33 | DESCRIPTION |
| 34 | ----------- | |
| bc162e40 | 35 | Adds a 'tag' reference in .git/refs/tags/ |
| b7e438f9 | 36 | |
| bc162e40 LT |
37 | Unless `-f` is given, the tag must not yet exist in |
| 38 | `.git/refs/tags/` directory. | |
| b7e438f9 | 39 | |
| bc162e40 LT |
40 | If one of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <key-id>` is passed, the command |
| 41 | creates a 'tag' object, and requires the tag message. Unless | |
| 42 | `-m <msg>` is given, an editor is started for the user to type | |
| 43 | in the tag message. | |
| b7e438f9 | 44 | |
| bc162e40 | 45 | Otherwise just the SHA1 object name of the commit object is |
| 56b5e946 | 46 | written (i.e. a lightweight tag). |
| bc162e40 LT |
47 | |
| 48 | A GnuPG signed tag object will be created when `-s` or `-u | |
| 49 | <key-id>` is used. When `-u <key-id>` is not used, the | |
| 50 | committer identity for the current user is used to find the | |
| 51 | GnuPG key for signing. | |
| 2cf565c5 | 52 | |
| 61f81518 KR |
53 | `-d <tag>` deletes the tag. |
