Message-ID: <1296214676536-5969544.post@n2.nabble.com> Hello friends I am wondering why the tags are there in git. As they are just pointer to the commit we can refer those commit by SHA sum only then why tagging? Moreover a commit can be tagged more than once that result in multiple tags pointing to the same point in the history. Is this a design flaw? -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/Why-git-tags-are-there-in-git-tp5969544p5969544.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
