Hi all,
"git name-rev" does not accept abbreviated SHAs if --stdin is used,
though it works when the SHA is given directly on the command line:
$ git version
git version 2.4.3
$ git name-rev --tags d73f544
d73f544 tags/v3.6.3~29
$ git name-rev --tags --stdin <<< d73f544
d73f544
This *is* documented, but I'm curious why this distinction is made. Is
it merely a matter of parsing or were there some other complications I
am unaware of, which forced this distinction to be made?
thanks
sitaram
