Describe the problem/error/question
I’m unable to push git tags to a remote repository using the core “Git” node.
What is the error message (if any)?
The remote repository requires authentication. Unlike the “Push” operation, the “Push Tag” operation doesn’t provides a field to select a git credential. Therefore, when pushing tags to a remote git, I get “cannot read username” error.
