Hi Guys,
I recently created a branch for the upcoming binutils 2.31 release
in the sourceware git repository. Unfortunately in the process I
made a mistake and first created a tag with the branchname, rather
than a branch. I eventually realised my mistake and then proceeded
to make the branch, but now there is tag with the same name as the
branch, and this is causing for some people when they try to check
out the sources.
I tried to delete the tag, but:
% git push origin :refs/tags/binutils-2_31-branch
remote: *** Deleting a tag is not allowed in this repository
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/tags/binutils-2_31-branch
Can I ask you to delete the tag for me, or is there some way that
I can rename it instead of deleting it ?
Cheers
Nick
