Azure DevOps Pipeline run only on specific tag

I have an Azure DevOps Pipeline that I want to only run when a specific tag is pushed to the repo, but for some reason it always runs on every commit.

My azure-pipelines.yml has the trigger setup like this:

trigger:
  tags:
    include:
      - mytag.*

I also tried excluding all branches:

trigger:
  branches:
    exclude:
      - "*"
  tags:
    include:
      - mytag.*

It seems like it makes no difference what the trigger is set as, it just always runs on every commit.

How do I make it run only when I push a tag?

I tried what you wrote and it seems to be working:

trigger:
  branches:
    exclude:
      - '*'
  tags:
    include:
    - v2.*
    exclude:
    - v2.0

pr:
  branches:
    include:
      - refs/tags/v2.*
    exclude:
      - 'refs/tags/v2.0'
      - '*'

So for this configuration when I make a commit, the build is not triggered. Only when I push a tag the build runs. It picks up last commit, but this this is clearly triggered by tag.

Here for instance you have another build which was triggered by Test commit
