GIT release new version of repository

Question

I'm trying to release my stable private library by doing the next:

Edited composer.json

"version": "1.0.0" => "version": "2.0.0"

Commit with message "Release 2.0.0" and git tag 1.0.0 -m "Release 1.0.0"

But now I'm looking to my repo and see none tags. What did I do wrong?

Answer 1

Use

git tag -l

To list the tags in your local repository.

Use

git ls-remote --tags [remote]

To list the remote --tags (ignore the leading refs/)

If you see the tag local but not remote you need to push it explicit by

git push [remote] [tag] 

or all tags by

git push --tags [remote]

Use

git show [tag]

To show details of the tag.

Answer 2

Use --tags key of git push when pushing to public repo.
