[PATCH 8] gitweb: Add git_get_rev_name_tags function

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add git_get_rev_name_tags function, for later use in
git_commitdiff('plain') for X-Git-Tag: header.

This function, contrary to the call to
  git_get_following_references($hash, "tags");
_does_ strip "tags/" and returns bare tag name.

This commit introduces function which does job that was intended
I guess for X-Git-Tag: header... perhaps it should be renamed...
