Create Version Tags with Git

Tag Git-Releases

Recent commits can be easily tagged via the GitHub Website. In case the commit is older, this cannot be done via the website. In this case, use the git command line interface to create a tag/release:

Creating a Version-Tag

git tag -a v0.1.0 9fceb02 -m "Message here"

where 9fceb02 would be the specific commit hash.

Pushing the Tag to the remote Repo's Master Branch

git push --tags origin master

The Tag should appear on the github website, where it can be edited accordingly.
