That's pretty simple. git-describe isn't even involved, this is my script now: #!/bin/sh cd /home/wireless/www/download/iw/ export GIT_DIR=/home/johannes/git/iw.git/ for tag in $(git tag) ; do ver=${tag#v} archive=iw-$ver.tar.bz2 if test -f $archive ; then continue fi git-archive --format=tar --prefix=iw-$ver/ $tag | bzip2 > $archive done johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
