How to import tags in gitlab

Question

I just converted our repository from github to internal gitlab. I started by getting a bare local repository and I was able to get a new master in gitlab.

In my local repository, the git tag shows a list of tags that I had on github. But none of the tags appear in gitlab.

I have GitLab 6.6.0.pre fe6c534.

So how do I import tags in gitlab?

Answer 1

You must click these tags on your remote gitlab:

git push --tags 

By default git push only commits are clicked, not tags.
(See “ Press git commits and tags at the same time ” for more information on this)
