| git-mktag - Creates a tag object |
| 'git-mktag' < signature_file |
| Reads a tag contents on standard input and creates a tag object |
| that can also be used to sign other objects. |
| The output is the new tag's <object> identifier. |
| A tag signature file has a very simple fixed format: four lines of |
| followed by some 'optional' free-form message (some tags created |
| by older git may not have `tagger` line). The message, when |
| exists, is separated by a blank line from the header. The |
| message part may contain a signature that git itself doesn't |
| care about, but that can be verified with gpg. |
