git tag verification fails on cts in replicant-6.0 i9100
Added by R B almost 8 years ago.

Description
running the command: "git verify-tag $(git describe)" in the directory "replicant-6.0/cts" gives the following:
error: android-cts-6.0_r18-23-g5ef4e2beae: cannot verify a non-tag object of type commit.
All other repos succeed with verification. I tried deleting the cts directory and running 'repo sync' again with no change.

Thanks for reporting this!
The reason is that for the CTS, a branch is checked out and not an actual tag. I only had thought Google engineers would always add a signed tag to the latest merge commit on that release branch. This was the case when I created the release but it's not the case right now which causes this error. The commit that will currently be checked out has no corresponding tag. I will fix this for the next release and directly use the latest tag as revision. This should not happen for other repos as the CTS repo is the last remaining default repo on the release branch where a tag isn't directly used as a revision.
For now, I added a note to the wiki page pointing to this issue.
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Resolution set to fixed
Fixed with the latest releases.
