Yep, that's pretty much how a build system I've had to use does it.
Sadly, this is quite slow, and I'm not sure if doing it built into the
tag via for-each-ref would be faster? I mean obviously having to look
at each commit is slower than just the tag name, but it might be
faster than parsing through the log process? Though the log output has
the advantage that it only shows you tags "on" a given branch.

Jake
