To rename a Git tag, you can delete the old tag and create a new one with the same name but a different message or commit hash. Here’s an example of how to rename a tag:
Delete the old tag:
git tag -d old-tag-name
Create a new tag with the same name but with a different message or commit hash:
git tag -a new-tag-name -m "New tag message" commit-hash
Here, new-tag-name is the name of the new tag you want to create, New tag message is the message you want to associate with the new tag, and commit-hash is the commit hash that you want to tag.
Push the new tag to the remote repository:
git push origin new-tag-name --force
The --force option is required because you’re overwriting an existing tag. This will update the remote repository with the new tag.
Note that renaming a tag can cause problems for anyone who has already cloned the repository and is using the old tag name. So, it’s best to avoid renaming tags if possible, and to communicate any changes to the tag names to other users who may be affected.
