Subject: [PATCH] name-rev: Fix tag lookup on repository with mixed types of tags
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2017 22:52:45 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170622195245.11252-1-orgads@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Orgad Shaneh <orgads@gmail.com>

Commit 7550424804 (name-rev: include taggerdate in considering the best
name) introduced a bug in name-rev.

If a repository has both annotated and non-annotated tags, annotated
tag will always win, even if it was created decades after the commit.

Consider a repository that always used non-annotated tags, and at some
point started using annotated tags - name-rev --tags will return the
first annotated tags for all the old commits (in our repository it is
followed by ~5067 for one commit, or by ~120^2~21^2~88^2~87 for
another...). This is obviously not what the user expects.

The taggerdate should only be matched if *both tags* have it.
