Dear gits,

(I'm on 1.5.0.5)

The last tag made seems to be missing from a patch ... eg.

        cd ~ ; mkdir myrepo ; cd myrepo
        git init-db ; echo STUFF > xxx ; git add xxx
        # work, work, work on xxx
        git commit -a
        git tag v1.0
        # work work work on xxx
        # then I clone this repository
        cd /tmp ; git clone ~/myrepo newmyrepo
        # go back and work some more
        cd ~/myrepo
        echo YYY >>xxx
        git commit -a
        git tag v1.1
        # is git commit -a required to commit the tag???
        git format-patch v1.0
        cd /tmp/newmyrepo
        git am ~/myrepo/THEPATCHNAME
        git tag ls

Where is tag v1.1 ?

Cheers, Geoff Russell
