Is it possible to find out who created a tag in Git?
Commits obviously have an author associated with them; but is it possible to find out which user created a tag on a Git repository?
Solution 1:
If it's an annotated tag, then yes. You can git show
it just like any other object. If it's a lightweight tag, then I don't believe so. Just one of the reasons why you should always annotate the tags you're going to share.
Solution 2:
You can use this command to show git tags with date, message and author email:
git for-each-ref --format '%(refname) %09 %(taggerdate) %(subject) %(taggeremail)' refs/tags --sort=taggerdate
This is the result of this command when I launch it on Material-UI project:
