There was a behavior change in "git tag" in b7cc53e9 (tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs, 2015-07-11, v2.5.0-276-gb7cc53e), such that "git tag" now writes "foo" as "tags/foo" if there is also a branch named "foo": % git tag tags/branchortag tagonly Previous behavior: % git tag branchortag tagonly I prefer the previous behavior. Perhaps the change was intentional, but I didn't see it documented.
