Dear git, git tag misses out some tags from this repo here, there seem to be too many to show: https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux It cuts the list short, losing either the latest ones with simply git tag or the earliest using either git tag --sort=-creatordate or git tag --sort=-taggerdate Is there some config option somewhere to show the full list?

That sounds like an issue with the pager. Does `git --no-pager tag` show all tags? What do the following things return: echo $LESS echo $GIT_PAGER git config core.pager git config pager.tag Kind regards, Kevin

I see 680 tags with all of those commands, which matches the number of
tags reported by:
git ls-remote --tags --refs \
https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux
Perhaps a silly question, but which tags do you think are missing? Are
you confused that 5.10 and 5.11 do not show up at the end? If so, it's
because they sort byte-wise between 5.1 and 5.2. So they're there, just
not at the end, with "git tag". When sorting by creatordate or
taggerdate, they appear at the beginning (because you chose a descending
sort).
