Change these invocations which currently error out without the -l, to
behave as if though -l was provided:
git tag -l [--contains|--points-at|--[no-]merged] <commit>
I ran into what turned out to be not-a-bug in "branch" where it,
unlike "tag" before this patch, accepts input like:
git branch --contains v2.8.0 <pattern>
Jeff King pointed out in
<[email protected]> in reply to
that::
The difference between "branch" and "tag" here is that "branch
--contains" implies "--list" (and the argument becomes a pattern).
Whereas "tag --contains" just detects the situation and complains.
If anything, I'd think we would consider teaching "tag" to behave
more like "branch".
I agree. This change does that, the only tests that broke as a result
of this were tests that were explicitly checking that this
"branch-like" usage wasn't permitted, i.e. no actual breakages
occurred, and I can't imagine an invocation that would negatively
impact backwards compatibility, i.e. these invocations all just
errored out before.
Spelunking through the history via:
git log --reverse -p -G'only allowed with' -- '*builtin*tag*c'
Reveals that there was no good reason for this in the first place. The
--contains option added in v1.6.1.1-243-g32c35cfb1e made this an
error, and all the other subsequent options I'm changing here just
copy/pasted its pattern.
I've changed the failing tests to check that this invocation mode is
permitted instead, and added extra tests for the list-like options we
weren't testing.

Junio: This will merge conflict with my in-flight --no-contains
patch. I can re-send either one depending on which you want to accept
first, this patch will need an additional test for --no-contains. I
just wanted to get this on the ML for review before the --no-contains
patch hit "master".
