[PATCH] git-tag(1): we tag HEAD by default

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

 



The <commit>|<object> argument is actually not explained anywhere
(except implicitly in the description of an unannotated tag).  Write a
little explanation, in particular to cover the default.

Prompted by a question on IRC about the default value.  Do we actually
read our own docs? ;-)
