+==========

+NAME
+----
+git-tag - Create a tag object signed with GPG
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-tag' [-a | -s | -u <key-id>] [-f | -d] [-m <msg>] <name> [<head>]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Adds a 'tag' reference in .git/refs/tags/
+
+Unless `-f` is given, the tag must not yet exist in
+`.git/refs/tags/` directory.
+
+If one of `-a`, `-s`, or `-u <key-id>` is passed, the command
+creates a 'tag' object, and requires the tag message. Unless
+`-m <msg>` is given, an editor is started for the user to type
+in the tag message.
+
+Otherwise just the SHA1 object name of the commit object is
+written (i.e. a lightweight tag).
+
+A GnuPG signed tag object will be created when `-s` or `-u
+<key-id>` is used. When `-u <key-id>` is not used, the
+committer identity for the current user is used to find the
+GnuPG key for signing.
+
+`-d <tag>` deletes the tag.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-a::
+ Make an unsigned, annotated tag object
+
+-s::
+ Make a GPG-signed tag, using the default e-mail address's key
+
+-u <key-id>::
+ Make a GPG-signed tag, using the given key
+
+-f::
+ Replace an existing tag with the given name (instead of failing)
+
+-d::
+ Delete an existing tag with the given name
+
+-m <msg>::
+ Use the given tag message (instead of prompting)
