Hi,

I would like to list tags chronologically. I failed to find out how to do this using git or cogito directly. So I wrote the simplistic bash script below. Is there a way more direct way?

----- #!/bin/bash

export PAGER=''

git-tag -l |
while read line
do
    MYTIME=`git-show --pretty=raw $line | perl -ne 'print $1 if /committer\s+\w+\s+\S+\s+(\d+)/'`
    echo "$MYTIME $line"
done | sort | perl -ne 'use POSIX qw(strftime); if (  /(\d+) (\S+)/ ) {print strftime "%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y", localtime $1; print "\t\t$2\n" }'

------

Cheers, Michael

for-each-ref is your friend:

	git for-each-ref --sort='taggerdate' refs/tags
