git describe

Hi,

git describe does not seam to apply the pattern given by the --match option in case the tag is a soft one. Is that done intentionally?

In addition I wonder if it was possible to introduce an option that would show all tags of a given commit, at least when --exact-match is specified too?

At the moment I'm using git log --decorate in a script to get the above
result. Part of the script looks something like this:


 		mytags=`git log --pretty=oneline --max-count=1\
 			--decorate $commit\
 		| awk '
/.*\/tags\/V1\..*/ {
 	sub("^.*[(]","")
 	gsub("tag: ","")
 	sub("[)].*","")
 	gsub(" ","")


 	split($0, tl, ",")
 	for (var in tl)
 	{
 		if (tl[var] ~ /refs\/tags/ && tl[var] ~ V1){
 			sub("refs/tags/","",tl[var])
 			print tl[var]
 		}
 	}
}
'`

Since that is quite clumsy. I would like to use git describe which
almost does what I need.

Cheers,
Michael
