Hi.
I have done this (on box A):
git commit -m "Message"
git tag -a 0.9.0
git push origin master
In my local repository, when I run "git tag" it is showing me "0.9.0".
Then I did (on box B)
git clone ssh://user@host:/path/project.git
cd project
git tag
Now git tag is showing nothing.
Why is the tag only available in my local repository?
Also when I try to
git clone --branch 0.9.0 ssh://user@host:/path/project.git
it tells me: fatal:remote branch not found in upstream repository origin
Why is the tag not available in origin?
Thanks,
Stefanie

"By default, the git push command doesn’t transfer tags to remote servers.
You will have to explicitly push tags to a shared server after you have created
them."
git push --tags
and
git fetch --tags
to be symmetrical
Cheers,
Randall

Because --branch <name> means get refs/heads/<name>, tags are not
branches. However, because we're apparently quite loose about this in
the clone/fetch code this does give you the tag if it exists, but
probably not in the way you expect.
We interpret the argument as a branch, and will get not only this tag
but "follow" (see --no-tags in git-fetch(1)) the tag as though it were a
branch and give you all tags leading up to that one. This would give you
a single tag:
git clone --no-tags --branch v2.19.0 --single-branch https://github.com/git/git.git
But this is a more direct way to do it:
git init git; git -C git fetch --no-tags https://github.com/git/git.git tag v2.19.0
Which'll since you said it failed that's because you haven't pushed the
tag. Try 'git ls-remote <url>' to see if it's there (it's not).
