Subject: git-describe: use tags found in packed-refs correctly
Date: Mon, 03 Mar 2008 09:13:59 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vejarivc8.fsf@gitster.siamese.dyndns.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080228062236.GA15845@spearce.org> (Shawn O. Pearce's message of "Thu, 28 Feb 2008 01:22:36 -0500")

When your refs are packed, "git-describe" can find the tag that is the
best match without ever parsing the tag itself.  But lookup_tag() in
display_name() says "I've never seen it", creates an empty shell, and
returns it.  We need to make sure that we actually have parsed the tag
data into it.
