Please Implement this 📿

My workaround is to create "fake" Branches with the prefix "tag-" (e.g., "tag-Release_1"). This has two drawbacks:

  1. Someone may actually start using this tag-branch as a Branch.
  2. It is still necessary to create real Tags (for release management and all the valuable uses that Tags have...). Furthermore, GUI's like SourceTree and gitk get cluttered because their views show the Tags ... plus my ludicrous tag-Branches.

It's as if GitHub doesn't acknowledge that TAGS exist?

Please add an option to show tags in the network view. What other quick way to we have for comparing a sequence of tags?

Now that I'm using tags to build container images via github actions, this would be EVEN MORE helpful as I could easily see where my images are sourced in the network view. Please implement this, if even as an option
