I suspect (I haven't looked at the evolution history of these import scripts) this was copied from git-cvsimport.perl. I would prefer to fix it the same way as 5c08931, which looks like this: commit 5c08931dfc9fa0acbf8667581e4c98d643e66dbe Author: Elvis Pranskevichus <el@xxxxxxxxx> Use git-tag in git-cvsimport --- git-cvsimport.perl | 26 ++------------------------ 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-cvsimport.perl b/git-cvsimport.perl index 4e6c9c6..524c9bb 100755 --- a/git-cvsimport.perl +++ b/git-cvsimport.perl @@ -771,31 +771,9 @@ sub commit { $xtag =~ s/\s+\*\*.*$//; # Remove stuff like ** INVALID ** and ** FUNKY ** $xtag =~ tr/_/\./ if ( $opt_u ); $xtag =~ s/[\/]/$opt_s/g; - - my $pid = open2($in, $out, 'git-mktag'); - print $out "object $cid\n". - "type commit\n". - "tag $xtag\n". - "tagger $author_name <$author_email>\n" - or die "Cannot create tag object $xtag: $!\n"; - close($out) - or die "Cannot create tag object $xtag: $!\n"; - - my $tagobj = <$in>; - chomp $tagobj; - - if ( !close($in) or waitpid($pid, 0) != $pid or - $? != 0 or $tagobj !~ /^[0123456789abcdef]{40}$/ ) { - die "Cannot create tag object $xtag: $!\n"; - } - - - open(C,">$git_dir/refs/tags/$xtag") + + system('git-tag', $xtag, $cid) == 0 or die "Cannot create tag $xtag: $!\n"; - print C "$tagobj\n" - or die "Cannot write tag $xtag: $!\n"; - close(C) - or die "Cannot write tag $xtag: $!\n"; print "Created tag '$xtag' on '$branch'\n" if $opt_v; } - 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
