We're currently getting a shallow clone of the lilypond source. In test-lily/upload.py, this command is executed: cd downloads/lilypond/git && git describe --abbrev=39 git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git/master but it fails with: fatal: cannot describe '834700852f25a6ade4a2f8efe2b13bc71278d3a3' (this is used to construct the tag command-line)
I can work-around the problem by adding --always to the git describe command-line, but then we end up with tags like this: git tag -m "release of lilypond 834700852f25a6ade4a2f8efe2b13bc71278d3a (2.13.4-0)" "gub-release-lilypond-2.13.4-0" 1) Do we care if the tag comment looks like this? 2) If not, can anybody suggest a better way of fixing the git describe command-line? Jan and I have no particular opinions on the above matters. Or rather, I don't think it matters what the tag looks like, but I agreed when he pointed out that the --always was an ugly hack and that we should consult others for a better fix.
