Git tags - ben600324/wiki GitHub Wiki

1. Create a branch with the tag git branch {tagname}-branch {tagname} git checkout {tagname}-branch

2. Include the fix manually if it's just a change .... git add . git ci -m "Fix included" or cherry-pick the commit, whatever is easier git cherry-pick {num_commit}

3. Delete and recreate the tag locally git tag -d {tagname} git tag {tagname}

4. Delete and recreate the tag remotely git push origin :{tagname} // deletes original remote tag git push origin {tagname} // creates new remote tag

5. Update local repository with the updated tag (suggestion by @wyattis) git fetch --tags
