+'git tag' [-a | -s | -u <keyid>] [-f] [-m <msg> | -F <file>] [-e]
<tagname> [<commit> | <object>]
'git tag' -d <tagname>...
'git tag' [-n[<num>]] -l [--contains <commit>] [--no-contains <commit>]
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).
+Otherwise, a tag reference that points directly at the given object
+(i.e., a lightweight tag) is created.
A GnuPG signed tag object will be created when `-s` or `-u
<keyid>` is used. When `-u <keyid>` is not used, the
variable if it exists, or lexicographic order otherwise. See
linkgit:git-config[1].
+--color[=<when>]:
+ Respect any colors specified in the `--format` option. The
+ `<when>` field must be one of `always`, `never`, or `auto` (if
+ `<when>` is absent, behave as if `always` was given).
+
-i::
--ignore-case::
Sorting and filtering tags are case insensitive.
Implies `-a` if none of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <keyid>`
is given.
+-e::
+--edit::
+ The message taken from file with `-F` and command line with
+ `-m` are usually used as the tag message unmodified.
+ This option lets you further edit the message taken from these sources.
+
--cleanup=<mode>::
This option sets how the tag message is cleaned up.
The '<mode>' can be one of 'verbatim', 'whitespace' and 'strip'. The
`core.logAllRefUpdates` in linkgit:git-config[1].
The negated form `--no-create-reflog` only overrides an earlier
`--create-reflog`, but currently does not negate the setting of
- `core.logallrefupdates`.
+ `core.logAllRefUpdates`.
<tagname>::
The name of the tag to create, delete, or describe.
