From: Toralf Förster Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2008 18:57:12 GMT Subject: feature request: git-log should accept sth like v2.6.26-rc8-227 Message-ID: <200807102057.15063.toralf.foerster@gmx.de> Hello, git-describe gives an informative string about the current status: tfoerste@n22 ~/devel/linux-2.6 $ git describe v2.6.26-rc9-56-g6329d30 I appended those strings to the names of my UML kernel executables. Unfortunately I didn't used the commit id and now I'm wondering whether git could accept v2.6.26-rc9-56 as well in future. -- MfG/Sincerely Toralf Förster pgp finger print: 7B1A 07F4 EC82 0F90 D4C2 8936 872A E508 7DB6 9DA3
