I overlooked your earlier huge testcase patch, but I noticed it does not include any test that fetches an annotated tag that points at a commit or a non-commit, nor an unannotated tag that is a tree or a blob. I am too tired to check them right now, but are you sure you are not regressing with them? It is sometimes handy to be able to say: $ git fetch git-gui tag spearce-gpg-pub $ git cat-file -p FETCH_HEAD - 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
