Tag¶
Tags are used to mark a specific version. Usually a tag will not be moved anymore. The image below shows the commit log of Git Extensions with a tag indicating version [3.00.00].
Tags are also available in the Left panel.
Create tag¶
In Git Extensions you can tag a revision by choosing Create new tag
in the commit log context menu. A dialog
will prompt for the name of the tag. You can also choose Create tag
from the Commands
menu, which will show
a dialog to choose the revision and enter the tag name.
Once a tag is created, it cannot be moved again. You need to delete the tag and create it again to move it.
Delete tag¶
Tags can be deleted, read about “What should you do when you tag a wrong commit and you would want to re-tag?” here: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-tag.html#_on_re_tagging
