Git tags not shown on Github

By xngo on October 17, 2020

Issue

I recently started creating tags using git command and I found out that when I pushed to github.com, they didn't automatically get pushed with my changes.

Solution

I found out that I missed a step. I need to push tags using the following command.

git push --tags <remote>

Or, from Eclipse, open Git Repositories view. Expand Tags and select tags that you want to push.
