| NAME | |
| ---- | |
| git-tag - Create a tag object signed with GPG | |
| SYNOPSIS | |
| -------- | |
| [verse] | |
| 'git-tag' [-a | -s | -u <key-id>] [-f | -d] [-m <msg>] <name> [<head>] | |
| 'git-tag' -l [<pattern>] | |
| DESCRIPTION | |
| ----------- | |
| Adds a 'tag' reference in `.git/refs/tags/` | |
| Unless `-f` is given, the tag must not yet exist in | |
| `.git/refs/tags/` directory. | |
| If one of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <key-id>` is passed, the command | |
| creates a 'tag' object, and requires the tag message. Unless | |
| `-m <msg>` is given, an editor is started for the user to type | |
| in the tag message. | |
| Otherwise just the SHA1 object name of the commit object is | |
| written (i.e. a lightweight tag). | |
| A GnuPG signed tag object will be created when `-s` or `-u | |
| <key-id>` is used. When `-u <key-id>` is not used, the | |
| committer identity for the current user is used to find the | |
| GnuPG key for signing. | |
| `-d <tag>` deletes the tag. | |
| `-l <pattern>` lists tags that match the given pattern (or all | |
| if no pattern is given). | |
| OPTIONS | |
