Subject: Getting the commit that corresponds to a specific annotated tag
Message-ID: <CA+mfgz2=ZFBetSGv1Bkq6orBbpVTS1k0gLVm0nGoR1sUDkDwqQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi

For some porcelain I'm writing I need to determine the commit that
corresponds to a given annotated tag, so far I have the following:

$ git cat-file tag <tag_name> | grep object | awk '{print $2}'

Is there already some pluming that performs this task?

Cheers

Adam
