Tag and children missing from tag hierarchy pages

+3
−0

I was on the Software Dev CD tag page, clicking through the pages of the "Hierarchy" sort. I wanted to see if there were git-* tags that are not nested under the git tag.[1]

Surprisingly, I discovered on page 4 where I expected to see all the git ones that git itself was not listed at all! The tag definitely exists.[2] Is it mis-sorted? Or is there a bug that hides it from the page? Maybe if there are too many child tags…?


  1. Spoiler: there are. ↩︎

  2. Oops. This page has a signpost to Moshi's excellent answer. ↩︎

git is a subtag of version-control, and so it's listed under it instead.

I'm glad you found the tag.

Another place where some context shows up is on the page you linked to for the git tag:

posts tagged git, subtag of version-control, 13 child tags
