Subject: [PATCH] gitk: properly deal with tag names containing / (slash)
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.5-rc0~223^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://git.lorimer.id.au/gitweb.git/diff_plain/48750d6a84a7fc08dcd7cb4533c280c00106f9b6?hp=48750d6a84a7fc08dcd7cb4533c280c00106f9b6

[PATCH] gitk: properly deal with tag names containing / (slash)

When creating a tag through gitk, and the tag name includes a slash (or
slashes), gitk errors out in a popup window.  This patch makes gitk use
'git tag' to create the tag instead of modifying files in refs/tags/,
which fixes the issue; if 'git tag' throws an error, gitk pops up with
the error message.

The problem was reported by Frédéric Brière through
http://bugs.debian.org/464104
