Yep, this is just the matching change to patch 1.

Previously we'd set VERBOSE even if we were going to show a format. And then later we just set the OMIT_STATUS bit, leaving VERBOSE in place: > - flags |= GPG_VERIFY_OMIT_STATUS; That _usually_ didn't matter because with OMIT_STATUS, we'd never enter print_signature_buffer(), which is where VERBOSE would usually kick in. But there's another spot we look at it: $ grep -nC2 VERBOSE tag.c 22- 23- if (size == payload_size) { 24: if (flags & GPG_VERIFY_VERBOSE) 25- write_in_full(1, buf, payload_size); 26- return error("no signature found"); So the code prior to your patch actually had another weird behavior. Try this: $ git verify-tag -v --format='my tag is %(tag)' v2.21.0 my tag is v2.21.0 $ git tag -m bar foo $ git verify-tag -v --format='my tag is %(tag)' foo object 66395b630f8ca08705b36c359415af8b25da9a11 type commit tag foo tagger Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> 1557387618 -0400 bar error: no signature found The "-v" only kicks in when there's an error. I think what your patch is doing (consistently ignoring "-v" when there's a format) makes more sense. It may be worth alerting the user when "-v" and "--format" are used together (or arguably we should _always_ show "-v" if the user really asked for it, but it does not make any sense to me for somebody to do so). > - if (format.format) { > + if (format.format) > if (verify_ref_format(&format)) > usage_with_options(verify_tag_usage, > verify_tag_options); > - } This leaves us with a weird doubled conditional (with no braces either!). Maybe: if (format.format && verify_ref_format(&format)) usage_with_options(...); ? Other than that, the patch looks good. I think it could use a test in t7030, though. -Peff
