   Can you elaborate?

   It would be good to see some code that will reproduce it. Thank you.

   I want to get the commit of a tag with

   repo = git.Repo('.')
   commit = repo.commit(tag).hexsha

   When the tag is something like @standardnotes/mobile@3.58.252 this fails with TypeError: HEAD is a detached symbolic reference as it points to error.

   It seems you have fix this? Thanks for your quick fix!
