From: Dmitry Potapov Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2008 08:26:55 GMT Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix update-hook-example to work with packed tag references Message-ID: <1214382416-6687-1-git-send-email-dpotapov@gmail.com> The update-hook-example used 'test -f' to check the tag present, which does not work if the checked reference is packed. This check has been changed to use 'git rev-parse $tag' instead.
