is it possible to know which tags are not yet pushed to a remote via a completely local command?

(e.g. the list of unpushed _commits_ may be received by ‘git log <upstream>..’)

I know it is possible to execute 'git ls-remote’ or 'git push --dry-run’, but both ask the remote server.
I’m almost sure that the answer is “NO”, but want to receive a confirmation from Git gurus :)

No. The client doesn't track what tags the remote has.

Not by default, but it is easy to configure your clone to fetch tags to
a separate namespace.
