Colors to use in output (when color is enabled). The format for COLOR_SCHEME is '<debug>:<info>:<warning>:<error>'. Numerical values and color names are accepted, empty fields imply the default color. For example, --git-color-scheme='cyan:34::' would show debug messages in cyan, info messages in blue and other messages in default (i.e. warning and error messages in red).

--posttag=COMMAND

Execute COMMAND after creating the tag.

Exported environment variables are: GBP_TAG (the name of the generated tag), GBP_BRANCH (the branch the package was built from) and GBP_SHA1 (the sha1 of the commit the tag was created at).

--[no-]sign-tags

GPG sign all created tags.

--keyid=GPG-KEYID

Use this keyid for gpg signing tags.

--debian-tag=TAG-FORMAT

--debian-tag-msg=tag-msg-format

--retag

Don't fail tag operations if a tag with the same version already exists. This is a command line only option that cannot be specified via gbp.conf.

--debian-branch=BRANCH_NAME

If you're not on this branch when invoking gbp tag it will fail. Default is master. This is done to make sure you don't accidentally tag on the wrong branch. Not being on this branch will be ignored when using --ignore-branch.

--ignore-branch

Don't check if the current branch matches DEBIAN-BRANCH.

--[no-]ignore-new

Don't abort if there are uncommitted changes in the source tree or the current branch doesn't match the DEBIAN-BRANCH.
