I thought a tag with a _message_ was not lightweight. $ git tag -ln ... olpc-update-2.16 Release 2.16 olpc-update-2.17 Release 2.17. olpc-update-2.18 Rlease 2.18. olpc-update-2.19 Release 2.19. Argh... I see now - git tag is being helpful and showing the first line of the commit msg instead of the tag msg, so I thought they were full tags. DWIM bites again! ;-( > And using --tags "helps" here: > $ git describe > olpc-update-2.16-20-g2d4e4b8 > > $ git describe --tags > olpc-update-2.19-3-g2d4e4b8 Right. Doesn't make a difference with 1.6.0.6 but it does with 1.6.3.1.26.gf5b223 m -- martin.langhoff@xxxxxxxxx martin@xxxxxxxxxx -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
