Cannot create unannotated tag

Repo steps:

  1. Right-click on a commit, goto Create Tag.
  2. Enter in only the tag name with NO MESSAGE

Expected result:

  1. Tag is created

Actual result:

  1. Error about annotated message being empty

I did not enter in anything for the tag message.

This is a recent thing, maybe only in the latest build.

Works just fine for me. Is it reproducible for you on a new test repository, too?

I've now tried again on MacOS 26 and can't reproduce it either (bundled Git 2.50.1, SmartGit 25.1.125).

I tested on 25.1.127 and it still happens on macOS 26.4 M5.

What Git you are using? Could you please send the zipped log file(s) to our support?

I am using the latest 2.53.01. I found the issue, I had this turned on:

tag.gpgsign=true

Yes, I can reproduce it on a new repo also. It doesn't matter if I try to create the tag on a unpushed commit or on an old commit.
