+# Tags
+
+Tags are useful for marking certain deployments and releases for later
+reference. Git supports two types of tags:
+
+- Annotated tags: An unchangeable part of Git history.
+- Lightweight (soft) tags: Tags that can be set and removed as needed.
+
+Many projects combine an annotated release tag with a stable branch. Consider
+setting deployment or release tags automatically.
+
+## Tags sample workflow
+
+1. Create a lightweight tag.
+1. Create an annotated tag.
+1. Push the tags to the remote repository.
+
+```shell
+git checkout master
+
+# Lightweight tag
+git tag my_lightweight_tag
+
+# Annotated tag
+git tag -a v1.0 -m ‘Version 1.0’
+
+# Show list of the existing tags
+git tag
+
+git push origin --tags
+```
