Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2009-03-25 21:05:53 MSK

This bug is also present in git-1.6.1.3-alt1.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #19333 +++


If --tags is given at the end of the command line, it doesn't work:

$ git ls-remote --tags git://repo.or.cz/git.git | head
d5aef6e4d58cfe1549adef5b436f3ace984e8c86	refs/tags/gitgui-0.10.0

$ git ls-remote git://repo.or.cz/git.git --tags | head
$ 

This behavior breaks the expectations, because in other git subroutines, it's possible to give an option at the end, for example "git push ... --tags".

Перевешиваю на p8, потому что всё ещё актуально.

Comment 2 Dmitry V. Levin 2018-08-08 19:44:00 MSK

Reproducible with git-core-2.17.1-alt3 as well.
This behaviour corresponds to the documentation, though.

Тогда закрываю, как "Не баг, а фича".

Это неправильная фича, пусть висит.
