Creating Tags

Git supports two types of tags: lightweight and annotated. In gCube we use lightweight tag to mark a specific point in the repository’s history.

Tags can be created anytime in the project's history. The following command creates a tag on the last commit in the current branch:

$ git tag <my tag>

Conventions

• We tag only the release branch
• Tags are used to mark releases
• The tag name must be in the format "vX.Y" or "vX.Y.Z" (where X,Y,Z are follow the versioning schema major.minor[.build])
