Subject: Fetching tags overwrites existing tags
Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2018 12:57:16 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAKk8isrAmWOdioJe2CdY+2F_AzKxcTGwd+kBsrAmGx-U=ZHGgA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
If have a repository with a tag "v1.0.0" and I add a remote repository
which also has a tag "v1.0.0" tag is overwritten.
Google found [1] from 2011 and option 3 is what I'd like to see. Has it been
implemented and I just don't see it?
[1]: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/git-version-control/0l_rJFyTE60
Here is an example demonstrating what I see:
$ echo abc > abc.txt
$ git init .
Initialized empty Git repository in
/home/wink/prgs/git/investigate-fetch-tags/.git/
$ git add *
$ git commit -m "Initial commit"
[master (root-commit) 1116fdc] Initial commit
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
create mode 100644 abc.txt
$ git tag v1.0.0
$ git remote add gbenchmark git@github.com:google/benchmark
$ git log --graph --format="%h %s %d"
* 1116fdc Initial commit (HEAD -> master, tag: v1.0.0)
$ git fetch --tags gbenchmark
warning: no common commits

$ git log --graph --format="%h %s %d"
* 1116fdc Initial commit (HEAD -> master)
As you can see the tag on 1116fdc is gone, v1.0.0 tag has been updated
and now its pointing to the tag in gbenchmark:
$ git log -5 --graph --format="%h %s %d" v1.0.0
* cd525ae Merge pull request #171 from eliben/update-doc-userealtime
(tag: v1.0.0)
|\
| * c7ab1b9 Update README to mention UseRealTime for wallclock time
measurements.
|/
* f662e8b Rename OS_MACOSX macro to new name BENCHMARK_OS_MACOSX. Fix #169
* 0a1f484 Merge pull request #166 from disconnect3d/master
|\
| * d2917bc Fixes #165: CustomArguments ret type in README
|/
Ideally I would have liked the tags fetched from gbenchmark to have a prefix
of gbenchmark/, like the branches have, maybe something like:
$ git fetch --tags gbenchmark
...
* [new branch] v2 -> gbenchmark/v2
* [new tag] v0.0.9 -> gbenchmark/v0.0.9
* [new tag] v0.1.0 -> gbenchmark/v0.1.0
* [new tag] v1.0.0 -> gbenchmark/v1.0.0
* [new tag] v1.1.0 -> gbenchmark/v1.1.0
* [new tag] v1.2.0 -> gbenchmark/v1.2.0
* [new tag] v1.3.0 -> gbenchmark/v1.3.0
* [new tag] v1.4.0 -> gbenchmark/v1.4.0
