[darcs-devel] [issue1917] tag matches should prefer exact matches

New submission from Jens Petersen <petersen at haskell.org>:

I was getting quite confused by

 darcs diff --from-tag foo-0.1 --to-tag foo-0.2

showing changes after tag foo-0.2, because of a later tag foo-0.2.1.

It seems preferring exact tag matches would be less surprising behaviour.

A workaround is "darcs diff --from-tag=foo-0.1$ --to-tag=foo-0.2$".
