Its recommended to use annotated tag instead of regular tag.

You simply add the -a as flag to the tag and the tag will include the same metadata as in commit. (committer, author, date, message etc)

Tag folders don't exists in git. However, some tools use the convention to consider whatever is before a / in the reference name as a folder or path. This applies to references in general, therefore tags and branches.

You can use:

$ git tag folder1/tag1

to create a "tag1 with folder1".
