By this, do you mean that `git log` shows the tag on the HEAD commit? Or do you mean that this is the first tag that `git log` emits? Note that `git log` walks complex graphs in a funny order by default; you'd need `--topo-order` (and usually `--graph` too) to see what's really going on. > "git log" directed to a file does not show any 'tag' in the commit > lines! That's normal if you have `--decorate` set to `auto` (many do: it used to be sensible ages ago, and I still have that set in my own default git config). Tags, in `git log` output,are decorations, and `auto` means *if going to terminal*. Chris
