What I did:
Ran
git clone https://github.com/apache/trafficserver.git
cd trafficserver
git describe --match=9.2.4 9.2.4
Expected result:
It outputs 9.2.4
Actual result:
$ git describe --match=9.2.4 9.2.4
fatal: No annotated tags can describe '90fbf13db0858cef0e0a094f445d846b60a4c1ef'.
However, there were unannotated tags: try --tags.
More information:
git describe works as expected with the 9.2.3 tag and the 9.2.4-rc0 tag:
$ git describe --match=9.2.3 9.2.3
9.2.3
$ git describe --match=9.2.4-rc0 9.2.4
9.2.4-rc0
Tested in a fresh clone of the repo.
