I'm not a git expert, then my explanations are to be confirmed >From what I understood, there is no problem on canonical ASF repo not github mirror. The problem is for people who cloned the repo or updated their clone with initial tag: they don't get the tag update unless they manually delete the cancelled tag.
For sure, the problem is limited to people who update their clone during the vote: IMHO, we're talking about Maven developers here. And nobody wrote any instructions on how to do the vote with a temporary tag then make the official tag only after the vote is successful: I don't know how to do that, then I'm personnally hoping I won't have to cancel a vote myself :) Regards, Hervé Le samedi 8 novembre 2014 13:31:23 Karl Heinz Marbaise a écrit : > Hi, > > On 11/8/14 1:21 PM, Hervé BOUTEMY wrote: > > for svn, in the past, we've deleted and reused the tag > > but the release manager decides if he wants to create a new tag: it > > doesn't > > hurt > > > > for git, we've seen deleting a tag is not really possible in a safe way, > > so > > there is only one solution > > Hm....are there any hints on that, cause i deleted earlier in Git > tags...which i never seen causing any problem... > > Kind regadrds > Karl Heinz Marbaise > > > Regards, > > > > Hervé > > > > Le samedi 8 novembre 2014 13:15:21 Mirko Friedenhagen a écrit : > >> Hello, > >> > >> now that I canceled the vote on maven-pmd-plugin 3.3 should I go for > >> 3.3.1 > >> or _delete_ and _reuse_ the tag.
