<p>Tags pointing to objects tracked from branch heads will be
|
||||
automatically downloaded when you <code>fetch</code> from a remote
|
||||
repository. However, tags that aren't reachable from branch heads
|
||||
will be skipped. If you want to make sure <em>all</em> tags are <em>always</em>
|
||||
included, you must include the <code>--tags</code> option.

<p>If you just want a single tag, use
|
||||
<code>git fetch <remote> tag <tag-name></code>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>By default, tags are not included when you <code>push</code> to
|
||||
a remote repository. In order to explicitly update these you must
|
||||
include the <code>--tags</code> option when using <code>git push</code>.

<p class="nutshell">
|
||||
<b>In a nutshell</b> you use <code>git tag</code> to mark a
|
||||
commit or point in your repo as important. This also allows
|
||||
you to refer to that commit with a more memorable reference
|
||||
than a SHA.
