cg-tag

NAME

cg-tag - mark certain commit with a tag

SYNOPSIS

cg-tag [-m MESSAGE]... [-e] [-s] [OTHER_OPTIONS] TAG_NAME [OBJECT_ID]

DESCRIPTION

Creates a tag referencing the given commit (or HEAD). You can then use the tag anywhere you specify a commit or tree ID.

cg-tag will try to sign the tag if you give it the -s option. You can override the default key choice by passing it the -k argument.

Takes the tag name and optionally the associated ID as arguments. When the standard input is not a terminal, it will accept the tag description on stdin.

OPTIONS

-e

Open editor for the tag description message.

-f

This will make cg-tag silently overwrite the tag if it already exists.

-m MESSAGE

Message associated with the tag, describing it. Multiple -m parameters will cause several description paragraphs to appear.

-M FILE

Include tag description message from a file (this has the same effect as if you would cat it to stdin).

-k KEYNAME

Use the given key to sign the tag, instead of the default one. You can use any key identifier GPG recognizes - the argument is passed verbatim as the --default-key argument to GPG.

-s

Sign the tag by your private key using GPG.

OBJECT_ID

This is most usually the ID of the commit to tag. Tagging other objects than commits is possible, but rather "unusual".

-h, --help

Print usage summary.

--long-help

Print user manual. The same as found in gitm[blue]1m[][1].
