+git-tag-script - Create a tag object signed with GPG
SYNOPSIS
--------
-'git-tag-script'
+'git-tag-script' [-s | -a] [-f] <name>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
-This is an example script that uses "git-mktag" to create a tag object
-signed with GPG.
+Adds a "tag" reference in .git/refs/tags/
+
+Unless "-f" is given, the tag must not yet exist in ".git/refs/tags"
+
+If "-s" or "-a" is passed, the user will be prompted for a tag message.
+and a tag object is created. Otherwise just the SHA1 object
+name of the commit object is written.
+
+A GnuPG signed tag object will be created when "-s" is used.
