Fetching tags from remote repository in IntelliJ

Question

When I have remote git repository, how can I fetch tags in IntelliJ IDEA?

Answer 1

According to the git fetch documentation:

By default, tags that point at objects that are downloaded from the remote repository are fetched and stored locally.

So you should get most tags just by executing VCS - Git - Fetch

However, if you're referring to the git fetch --tags option, it is not possible in IntelliJ at the moment - vote for https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-159572
