Short and sweet example. Here I am creating a tag named v1.1 of my code and pushing it to origin
# Once you are satisfied with your code git tag -a v1.1 -m "this is a message to remember what this tag is about" # To view your current tags git tag # To push your tag to origin git push origin v1.1
If at some point you need to checkout the tag
# This will checkout the tag as a branch git checkout -b <branch name> v1.1
