NAME¶
git-mktag - Creates a tag object
SYNOPSIS¶
git mktag < signature_file
DESCRIPTION¶
Reads a tag contents on standard input and creates a tag object that can also be
used to sign other objects.
The output is the new tag’s <object> identifier.
A tag signature file has a very simple fixed format: four lines of
object <sha1>
type <typename>
tag <tagname>
tagger <tagger>
followed by some
optional free-form message (some tags created by older
git may not have tagger line). The message, when exists, is separated by a
blank line from the header. The message part may contain a signature that git
itself doesn’t care about, but that can be verified with gpg.
