Custodians, please remove tag NIOS2-5_0_0 from your repos

Hello all,

This tag NIOS2-5_0_0 keeps lingering in ARM repositories and should not be there. I regularly have to remove it from u-boot-arm because I keep catching it occasionally when recreating my u-boot-arm local copy and then fetching another ARM repo such as u-boot-atmel, u-boot-marvell, u-boot-pxa, u-boot-samsung, and u-boot-ti, which all contain this tag.

Custodians should remove this tag from their respective repos, except Scott McNutt of course, who owns The Vote as far as keeping NIOS2-5_0_0 in u-boot-nios is concerned. :)

This should be done in your remote (so that others don't catch it from you) and in your local working repo (so that you don't risk pushing it again on your remote), by executing respectively:

	git push ssh://gu-xxx at git.denx.de/u-boot-xxx :NIOS2-5_0_0

and

	git tag -d NIOS2-5_0_0

Thanks in advance!

Note that this tag may exist in non-ARM repos -- I don't fetch any except u-boot itself (where this tag is not), so I can't tell, and won't be able to notice, if they are removed or not in those non-ARM repos.

Amicalement,

Albert.

Dear Albert,

The tag no longer serves any practical purpose.

Hi Albert,

Just for your information - you can add a "tagopt = --no-tags" option to remote repositories in your .git/config like this:

[remote "arago-omapl1"]
url = git://arago-project.org/git/projects/linux-omapl1.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/arago-omapl1/* tagopt = --no-tags

This way, you'll never implicitely pull tags from that repository. It turned out to be helpful, so I wanted to share the tip.

Cheers
Detlev
