Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Git::Tag - tag the new version
version 1.121010
In your dist.ini:
[Git::Tag] tag_format = v%v ; this is the default tag_message = v%v ; this is the default
Once the release is done, this plugin will record this fact in git by creating a tag. By default, it makes an annotated tag. You can set the tag_message attribute to change the message. If you set tag_message to the empty string, it makes a lightweight tag.
tag_message
It also checks before the release to ensure the tag to be created doesn't already exist. (You would have to manually delete the existing tag before you could release the same version again, but that is almost never a good idea.)
The plugin accepts the following options:
tag_format - format of the tag to apply. Defaults to v%v, see Formatting options below.
v%v
Formatting options
tag_message - format of the tag annotation. Defaults to v%v, see Formatting options below. Use tag_message = to create a lightweight tag.
tag_message =
time_zone - the time zone to use with %d. Can be any time zone name accepted by DateTime. Defaults to local.
%d
local
branch - which branch to tag. Defaults to current branch.
signed - whether to make a GPG-signed tag, using the default e-mail address' key. Consider setting user.signingkey if gpg can't find the correct key:
user.signingkey
gpg
$ git config user.signingkey 450F89EC
Some plugin options allow you to customize the tag content. You can use the following codes at your convenience:
%{dd-MMM-yyyy}d
The current date. You can use any CLDR format supported by DateTime. A bare %d means %{dd-MMM-yyyy}d.
%n
A newline
%N
The distribution name
%{-TRIAL}t
Expands to -TRIAL (or any other supplied string) if this is a trial release, or the empty string if not. A bare %t means %{-TRIAL}t.
%t
%v
The distribution version
my $tag = $plugin->tag;
Return the tag that will be / has been applied by the plugin. That is, returns tag_format as completed with the real values.
