What I fail to understand is why anyone would want to tag the head of
a branch in an instantaneous fashion. Wouldn't you want to
build/test, etc. first? If you're just doing daily tags, can't you
just tag the previous second - wouldn't that be good enough?
I'm kind of lost on what the point of contention is here. What is it
that someone would want to do that is affected by the tag locking
change? Could someone please clarify?
Thanks,
