Antoine Toulme resolved BUILDR-257.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

Marked as won't fix/invalid. It's up to the user to do his homework. With git there is more than one canonical repo as well, so this becomes a bit irrelevant.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-257
>             Project: Buildr
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.10, 1.3, 1.3.1, 1.3.2, 1.3.3
>            Reporter: Alexis Midon
>
> Today before creating the tag in the vcs, the release task deletes any existing tag with the same name, and then creates a new one.
> Meaning that if people have already checked out the old tag, the content  will changed behind their backs and they might not be aware of it.
> It seems really dangerous.
> If a tag already exists, the release task should fail.
