IT GOES AT THE END. If that is the case, can't you do it without introducing this new tag object, like this? 1. Find existing commit-id that you want to tag. 2. Sign that commit object: cat-file commit $commit | gpg --detach-sign --armor -u 'Linus Torvalds' >commit.sig 3. Make another commit, making the original commit as its parent: { echo tag This is my tag. cat commit.sig } | commit-tree $(cat-file commit $commit | sed -e 's/tree //;d') -p $commit Then you can publish the ID of this commit object, which attests that the original commit is what you vouch for.
