To fetch tags from a remote repository in Git, you can use the following command:
git fetch --tags
This command will retrieve all the tags from the remote repository and update your local repository with them. If you simply run git fetch, it will fetch updates from the remote branches but may not automatically fetch the tags unless specified. Alternatively, if you want to fetch a specific tag, you can use:
git fetch origin tag <tag_name>
Replace <tag_name> with the actual name of the tag you want to fetch.
