# Tagging

## Goal
Create and list tags and share them with remotes.

## Lightweight vs Annotated Tags
- Lightweight: just a name pointing at a commit.
- Annotated: includes metadata (message, tagger), recommended for releases.

## Create Tags
```bash
cd ~/lab-git-essentials/my-first-repo

# Lightweight
git tag v0.1

# Annotated
git tag -a v1.0 -m "First stable release"

# List tags
git tag -n
```

## Inspect a Tag
```bash
git show v1.0
```

## Push Tags to Remote
```bash
git push origin v1.0          # push a single tag
git push origin --tags        # push all tags
```

## Outcome
You can create, view, and push tags for versioning.
