Why not using git-tag to make tags in filter-branch? git-mktag was used in git-tag.sh before convert it into builtin-tag.c, and I didn't know that anyone was using it. I agree that, if this program exists and it is used, we should double-check the accepted format and data, so this patch is a good addition. However, I think that we should progressively deprecate its use to avoid mantaining two different ways for creating tags, so you must have a very good reason to keep using this tool in a script...
