How to create git tag?


 here are the steps to create a tag in Git:

1. Make sure you are on the correct branch: Before creating a tag, you need to ensure that you are on the correct branch where you want to create the tag. You can use the git branch command to check the current branch and switch to another branch if necessary using git checkout.

2.  Decide the name of the tag: A tag can have any name you want. It is good practice to choose a descriptive name so that it is easy to understand in the future.

3. Create the tag: Once you are on the correct branch and have chosen a name for the tag, use the following command to create the tag:

git tag

For example, if you wanted to create a tag named "v1.0", you would use the following command:

git tag v1.0

This command will create a tag with the name "v1.0" at the current HEAD position.

Make sure the tag has been created correctly: To verify that the tag has been created correctly, you can use the git tag command to list all tags in the repository:

git tag

This command will show a list of all tags in alphabetical order.

If you want to push the tag to the remote repository, use the following command:

git push --tags

This command will push all tags to the remote repository.


That's it! You have now created a tag in Git.
