6 git-mktag - Creates a tag object
16 Reads a tag contents on standard input and creates a tag object
17 that can also be used to sign other objects.
19 The output is the new tag's <object> identifier.
23 A tag signature file, to be fed to this command's standard input,
24 has a very simple fixed format: four lines of
31 followed by some 'optional' free-form message (some tags created
32 by older Git may not have `tagger` line). The message, when
33 exists, is separated by a blank line from the header. The
34 message part may contain a signature that Git itself doesn't
35 care about, but that can be verified with gpg.
