Git commit doesn't show on repository when a tag is moved towards it on push

I recently pushed a commit and moved a previous tag onto it with the push.

git add -A .
git commit -m "made changes and moving previous tag to this commit"
git tag -a {previous-tag} -f
git push --tags -f

When using git log it shows the commit, but at my git repo page, it doesn't show the commit. How can I fix this?

Edit: The most recent commit shown on my Github page is the commit that the tag was originally on.

Edit 2: Also, Composer pulls in the correct commit (the newer one that the older tag was pushed to). I'm not pulling dev-master.

Update:

I'm not sure what the problem was but I pushed a test commit (without moving tag) and suddenly the previous two commits that did not show are showing up now (timestamp of the problem commit was hours ago).

Unless you are using git push --follow-tags (git 1.8.3+), you have pushed only the tag, not the branch HEAD.

A pull will pull that tag, and reference that commit.
But until you push the branch HEAD (which you did by pushing a test commit), you won't see that tagged commit on the remote repo.
