How to delete Github Tag forever? [duplicate]

Question

I know I can go to github.com, select my tag and then click delete, but this will only delete the Tag information not the actual Tag. So how to delete it forever?!

Answer 1

Run this in your local git repository:

git fetch
git tag
git tag -d {tag-name}
git push origin :refs/tags/{tag-name}

Visit Github.com and refresh to see the tags have been removed.
