How to create a tag with a slash in the name

Question

Is there a way to create a git tag with a slash in the name when I already have a similar view?

Suppose I have a tag "1.16.0" and I want to create a tag "1.16.0 / 1.0.0":

$ git tag "1.16.0/1.0.0"
error: 'refs/tags/1.16.0' exists; cannot create 'refs/tags/1.16.0/1.0.0'
fatal: refs/tags/1.16.0/1.0.0: cannot lock the ref

Answer 1

It's impossible. See, the name of the tag (in fact, any link, the same goes for branches) is considered as the name of the file system object created in the folder of $GIT_DIR/refsyour repository. This object stores the hash commit to which the tag is bound.

With a tag foo, it's easy - a file foois created in $GIT_DIR/refs, nothing much to wonder about.

foo/bar, , : foo, - bar ( , -). :

[ ] / ()

, - - . , 1.16.0, 1.16.0/anything. 1.16.0/0.0.1, . - _.
