I have cloned recursively a repo from GitLab and then got the tags of the submodules by using the following command:
git submodule foreach git tag -l
So as an example. I have the following submodule (components), AccltrInterLckDet listed along with all of its tags:
Entering 'components/AccltrInterLckDet'
01.01.20210702.001
01.02.202203.001
beagledaimler.02.202211.001
legendgold.02.202210.001
octanegold.02.202210.001
titanium.02.202210.001
titanium.02.202211.001
Is there a way to order the tags from latest to oldest? As reference for that component when I go into GitLab and sort the tags by "Updated date", I get the following order:
titanium.02.202211.001
beagledaimler.02.202211.001
titanium.02.202210.001, legendgold.02.202210.001
octanegold.02.202210.001
01.02.202203.001
01.01.20210702.001
Thanks!
>Solution :
You can use the taggerdate sort key to sort your tags, and add - in front to make it sort them in reverse order:
git tag --sort=-taggerdate -l
so for all your submodules, that would be
git submodule foreach git tag --sort=-taggerdate -l
