Git tag output order is incorrect (IMHO)

From: Rahul Bansal <hidden>

I am posting here first time, so please excuse me if this is not right place to send something like this.

Please check - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6091306/can-i-make-git-print-x-y-z-style-tag-names-in-a-sensible-order

And also - https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/issues/4565

IMHO "git tag" is expected to show tag-list ordered by versions. 

It may be case, that people do not follow same version numbering convention. Most people after x.9.x increment major version (that is why they may not be affected because of this)

Another option like "git tag --date-asc" can be added which will print tags by creation date. (As long as people do not create backdated tag, this will work).

Thanks,
