Currently in 'shortlog' view you can see 'ref' markers... which include tags. For example 'shortlog' view for 'maint' branch has the following fragment: 2010-07-28 Matthieu Moy Document ls-files -t as semi-obsolete. 2010-07-27 Junio C Hamano Git 1.7.2.1 [v1.7.2.1] 2010-07-27 Junio C Hamano Sync with 1.7.1.2 2010-07-27 Junio C Hamano Git 1.7.1.2 [v1.7.1.2] 2010-07-27 Junio C Hamano Sync with 1.7.0 series 2010-07-27 Junio C Hamano Git 1.7.0.7 [v1.7.0.7] where e.g. [v1.7.2.1] is ref marker for 'v1.7.2.1' tag.
