The ref transaction can fail after the user has written their tag message. In particular, if there exists a tag `foo/bar` and `git tag -a foo` is said then the command will only fail once it tries to write `refs/tags/foo`, which is after one has closed the editor. Hold on to the message file for a little longer so that it is not unlinked before the fatal error occurs.
