DESCRIPTION
Unless `-f` is given, the named tag must not yet exist.
-If one of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <key-id>` is passed, the command
+If one of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <keyid>` is passed, the command
creates a 'tag' object, and requires a tag message. Unless
`-m <msg>` or `-F <file>` is given, an editor is started for the user to type
in the tag message.
-If `-m <msg>` or `-F <file>` is given and `-a`, `-s`, and `-u <key-id>`
+If `-m <msg>` or `-F <file>` is given and `-a`, `-s`, and `-u <keyid>`
are absent, `-a` is implied.
Otherwise just a tag reference for the SHA-1 object name of the commit object is
created (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
+<keyid>` is used. When `-u <keyid>` is not used, the
committer identity for the current user is used to find the
GnuPG key for signing. The configuration variable `gpg.program`
is used to specify custom GnuPG binary.
--sign::
Make a GPG-signed tag, using the default e-mail address's key.
--u <key-id>::
---local-user=<key-id>::
+-u <keyid>::
+--local-user=<keyid>::
Make a GPG-signed tag, using the given key.
-f::
using fnmatch(3)). Multiple patterns may be given; if any of
them matches, the tag is shown.
---sort=<type>::
- Sort in a specific order. Supported type is "refname"
- (lexicographic order), "version:refname" or "v:refname" (tag
+--sort=<key>::
+ Sort based on the key given. Prefix `-` to sort in
+ descending order of the value. You may use the --sort=<key> option
+ multiple times, in which case the last key becomes the primary
+ key. Also supports "version:refname" or "v:refname" (tag
names are treated as versions). The "version:refname" sort
order can also be affected by the
- "versionsort.prereleaseSuffix" configuration variable. Prepend
- "-" to reverse sort order. When this option is not given, the
- sort order defaults to the value configured for the 'tag.sort'
+ "versionsort.prereleaseSuffix" configuration variable.
+ The keys supported are the same as those in `git for-each-ref`.
+ Sort order defaults to the value configured for the 'tag.sort'
variable if it exists, or lexicographic order otherwise. See
linkgit:git-config[1].
Use the given tag message (instead of prompting).
If multiple `-m` options are given, their values are
concatenated as separate paragraphs.
- Implies `-a` if none of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <key-id>`
+ Implies `-a` if none of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <keyid>`
is given.
-F <file>::
--file=<file>::
Take the tag message from the given file. Use '-' to
read the message from the standard input.
- Implies `-a` if none of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <key-id>`
+ Implies `-a` if none of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <keyid>`
is given.
--cleanup=<mode>::
The object that the new tag will refer to, usually a commit.
Defaults to HEAD.
+<format>::
+ A string that interpolates `%(fieldname)` from the object
+ pointed at by a ref being shown. The format is the same as
+ that of linkgit:git-for-each-ref[1]. When unspecified,
+ defaults to `%(refname:short)`.
+
+--[no-]merged [<commit>]::
+ Only list tags whose tips are reachable, or not reachable
+ if '--no-merged' is used, from the specified commit ('HEAD'
+ if not specified).
