| git-mktag - Creates a tag object |
| 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, to be fed to this command's standard input, |
| 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. |
| Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite |
