Thanks. That helps. So my proposal is to get rid of non-annotated tags, so to get all tags with commits that they point to, one would use: git for-each-ref --format='%(*objectname) %(refname)' refs/tags For so-called non-annotated tags just leave the message empty. I don't see why anyone would need non-annotated tags though. -- anatoly t.
