push all branches and tags at the end of a Git Town operation #2581
Comments
My preference as a user is to avoid pushing tags at the end of an operation. I've actually found myself searching for how to disable the behavior of I see in this comment: #2906 (comment) you have the following reasoning:
My experience does not align with that same assumption. Because the upstream repo is a shared resource, what is pushed does influence what others see and the tags available. I can understand how tags are thought of similar to branches and if you share an upstream with branches, why not tags? I think for me that reasoning breaks down a bit when you think of |
@defunctzombie thanks for sharing your perspective! Can you please describe the specific reason why you don't want to share Git tags that exist on your local machine with the other developers? |
@kevgo from my perspective framing it as "don't want to share Git tags" is maybe attributing a different workflow than what I am expecting. When I use |
Thanks for the extra info! I still don't understand why you want Git Town to not sync tags.
It sounds like you don't care about Git tags at all and don't use them in your development workflow. If I understood that correctly, why does it "bother" you that Git Town syncs tags? Why not simply ignore the tags that Git Town syncs? Tags are typically used to label code releases. This can be useful in development when triangulating bugs reported by users. Here is an example:
Syncing of tags was added after Git Town users requested it. There hasn't been much discussion about Git tag support in the last couple of years. Most people seem to be okay with it. In any case, it sounds like you want to support #3212. That's great to know and bumps the priority of that ticket! |
I agree - which is why I would not want any random cruft from my machine making its way to the central repo. Maybe what I really want to say is that I don't want to implicitly push my tags in |
Thanks for sharing your perspective on tags. I see your point. I now agree that a feature that makes tag syncing optional makes sense. |
