A feature I would very much like to have in git is to have tag
information included in the log generated by git-log. This would
make it easy to see where the tags are in the history. The use
case for us would be to have release tags displayed so that it's
possible to identify which revisions constitute release points,
which is useful for e.g. users to identify points for bisection.
I can do it now using sed to substitute in the contents of
.git/refs/tags/*, but having the functionality in git-log directly
would be most useful.
