Get git tag of checked out revision?

Question

I'm doing

$ git tag

current
tag_example_to_test_task

$ git checkout tag_example_to_test_task

...

HEAD is now at 75fdde3... commit comment text example

 $ git name-rev --name-only --tags HEAD

current

$ git describe --exact-match --tags

current

I need to end execution sequence with some command like this:

$ git "some command here"

tag_example_to_test_task

How to do that? How to get tag name of current checked out tag?

Answer 1

I think

git log -n 1 --pretty=format:'%d'

should do the trick.

However, it'll show you names of all branches and tags your current revision has. I don't think it's possible to get just the single tag that have been used to check out the revision.
