Subject: git-push: forced update of tag shows unabbreviated SHA1
Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2008 10:27:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47A1948F.6080308@viscovery.net> (raw)

This is just a cosmetical flaw:

When a tag is changed to point to a new commit, then the tag is pushed to
a repo that still has the old tag, it is correctly pushed, but the old
SHA1 is reported with all 40 digits:

# make upstream repo
$ mkdir A && cd A
$ git init
$ echo a > a; git add a; git commit -m a

# clone, modify, push
$ cd ..
$ git clone A B
$ cd B
$ echo b > a; git commit -a -m b
$ git push file://$PWD/../A

# tag old state in upstream
$ cd ../A
$ git tag -m T T HEAD~1

# tag new state in clone (same name) and force-push tag
$ cd ../B
$ git tag -m Tclone T
$ git push -f file://$PWD/../A refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*

 + 639669ce44f84417f30842c622064827dda01461...475e55f T -> T (forced update)

Notice that the original SHA1 is not abbreviated.
