I'm not sure. I'm not as familiar with the low-level git commands as I am with cogito. But cogito has a -d option for giving a tag description. I guess what would be closest to what I was thinking about would be this: $ cg-tag -d "First draft, everything in place." 0.3 7540e503b9b9c1b03e44ee7fd700c844b2a02224 $ cg-tag-ls 0.1 Initial idea complete f953b71b21a0bea682c2bed91362f2dce2cc204f 0.3 First draft, everything in place. 7540e503b9b9c1b03e44ee7fd700c844b2a02224 $ or something like that. Currently when I do the above cg-tag command, a subsequent cg-tag-ls gives just: $ cg-tag-ls 0.1 f953b71b21a0bea682c2bed91362f2dce2cc204f 0.3 7540e503b9b9c1b03e44ee7fd700c844b2a02224 In fact, I probably wouldn't even be interested in seeing the actual hash key unless I gave a special flag, maybe -f (for "full"): $ cg-tag-ls 0.1 Initial idea complete 0.3 First draft, everything in place. $ cg-tag-ls -f 0.1 Initial idea complete f953b71b21a0bea682c2bed91362f2dce2cc204f 0.3 First draft, everything in place. 7540e503b9b9c1b03e44ee7fd700c844b2a02224 $ > > BTW, when will the next issue of GIT traffic appear ;-)? Honestly, I don't know. I seem to be having my hands full just trying to keep Kernel Traffic up-to-date (just caught up today, finally). I really did the first Git Traffic to kind of spread the word about how mind-blowing the whole git development process was. But whether I'll keep on doing it, I don't know. Between Kernel Traffic, my day job, and a few non-Linux projects, I may have my hands full. On the other hand, if someone wanted to volunteer to write Git Traffic, I'd be happy to help them get started. I don't mean you, but perhaps a regular reader of this list would be interested. It seems like there's at least some interest in seeing it continue. :-) Be well, Zack > > > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in > the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- Zack Brown - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
