Implementation notes: Writing an annotated tag parser should be trivial. Here’s what they look like. The tagger line looks like it is the same format as author and committer in git commits.

Note that this is NOT a ‘clearsigned’ GPG document. 🙄 But rather a ‘detached’ signature concatenated on the end of the payload with an extra newline in between.

Status update:

You can fetch tags (git.fetch({…, tags: true})) and list them (git.listTags(…)). Checking out lightweight tags should work. Resolving and checking out annotated tags, and other tag operations don’t yet.
