Hi,

GIT refuses to set annotated tags without a comment. I think this is a silly
restriction when the message is explicitly set to the empty string.
I think that this behaviour is on purpose: The tag will be identified
(like all objects in git) by its contents. The rationale: the filename
does not matter, since the tag _object_ is not identified by it. So, in
case you lose your .git/refs/tags/ directory, you can still reconstruct
the tags with "git-fsck-objects --full".
Without a message, the tag can still be identified by its name, which is
in the tag object contents.
