How to update a tag with a bug fix

I need to be able to change my local repository to a particular tag, make a change, push the change and then git pull the tag+change on the production server. Here's where I'm stuck.

Switch local repo to a particular tag

git checkout v5.86

Code changed on local repo

Push the tag to the production server?

I tried git push but that said "Everything up-to-date" which is wrong? My change wasn't pushed to Github.

How to pull the update to another server?

Can I push the change to the tag?

Thanks.

Without any parameters, git push will push every "matching" branch that exists on both your server and the remote server, or everything under git config remote.origin.push if you've set it up that way.

Try git push tag v5.86, or git push --tags.
