[jira] Reopened: (INFRA-2739) Tags don't show up in git

["Jukka Zitting (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-2739?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jukka Zitting reopened INFRA-2739:
----------------------------------


> git for-each-ref refs/remotes/tags | cut -d / -f 4- | while read ref; do git tag -a "$ref" -m"tag for $ref" "refs/remotes/tags/$ref"; done 

Yes, we could do something like that. But before doing so, we need to answer the following questions:

1) What happens (/ should happen) when someone commits to a tag in svn?

2) Can we switch existing mirrors to use this mechanism? Will this confuse existing clones?

Reopening until we figure out how to proceed.

> Hi,
> somehow the SVN tags are not visible from Git. Instead of showing up as a tag each tag is listed as "tags/$TAG" branch.
> Usually with
> $ git svn clone -s  http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/
> all branches and tags should show up correctly! It may be possible that with older versions of Git you explicitly need to set the "{trunk,tags,branches}" names:
> $ git svn clone --trunk=trunk --branches=branches --tags=tags http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/
> HTH
