You are always in full control of your own repository, and have no control over what other people do with their's. So you can't prevent other people from changing the tags in their private repos, but you can prevent them from propagating these changes back to you, or to a central repository you control. But perhaps there is nothing to worry about. I think the git commands won't modify a tag unless you force it. Also, if you use signed tags, you can be sure that they are not silently replaced while still claiming to be tagged by you. -- David Kågedal -- 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
