From: Jeff King Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2009 23:16:22 GMT Subject: [PATCH 0/2] cosmetic improvements for "git show tag" Message-ID: <20090717231622.GA13511@coredump.intra.peff.net> Right now, if you do: $ git tag -m 'annotated tag message' foo $ git show foo you get: tag foo Tagger: Jeff King Date: Fri Jul 17 19:10:54 2009 -0400 annotated tag message commit 88c17f18d7f3091508218b36a17cdf0dfd56ae65 Author: Jeff King Date: Fri Jul 17 19:10:50 2009 -0400 commit message diff ... which is IMHO quite hard to read. These two one-liner patches improve the output to: tag foo Tagger: Jeff King Date: Fri Jul 17 19:10:54 2009 -0400 annotated tag message commit 88c17f18d7f3091508218b36a17cdf0dfd56ae65 Author: Jeff King Date: Fri Jul 17 19:10:50 2009 -0400 commit message diff ... which I find much more readable. The changes are localized to "git show", and since it is porcelain, I don't think there should be any negative fallout by changing the output. --- Jeff King (2): show: suppress extra newline when showing annotated tag show: add space between tag body and tagged object builtin-log.c | 3 ++- 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
