Quick Tip on Git Tags

Creating the Tags in Git repo

• Tagging head of the branch 

git tag -a <tag name> -m "<message to identify tag>"

• Tagging a particular commit (last seven chars of a commit ID: ed26815)

git tag -a <tag name> -m "<message to identify tag>" ed26815

Pushing the Git Tags to repo (for sharing) 

• By Name

git push origin <tagname>

• Pushing all tags at once

git push origin --tags
