Maybe this is documented in some place I didn't spot, but I expected
that when I set GIT_AUTHOR_{NAME,EMAIL} it would affect the operation
of git-tag, but it doesn't seem to. When I create tags it seems to
completely ignore those variables.
Should it be doing that? Here's a test script demonstrating the issue:
#!/bin/sh -e
# Set defaults
git config --global user.name "Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
rm -rf /tmp/test-git
git init /tmp/test-git
cd /tmp/test-git
make_commit() {
file=$1
content=$2
echo $content >$file
git add $file
git commit -m"$file: $content" $file
git --no-pager log -1 HEAD | grep ^Author
}
make_commit README "testing content"
git config user.name "Test User"
git config user.email "[email protected]"
make_commit README "testing content again"
git tag -a -m"annotated tag" tag-name-1
git --no-pager show tag-name-1 | grep ^Author
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="Tag Test User"
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="[email protected]" git tag -a -m"another annotated
tag" tag-name-2
git --no-pager show tag-name-2 | grep ^Author
Which outputs:
$ sh /tmp/test-tag.sh
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/test-git/.git/
[master (root-commit) 9816756] README: testing content
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
create mode 100644 README
Author: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <[email protected]>
[master 304b71e] README: testing content again
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
Author: Test User <[email protected]>
Author: Test User <[email protected]>
Author: Test User <[email protected]>
I'd expect references to "Tag Test User <[email protected]>" for the
second tag I created.
