How do I automatically tag the code in Stash when I deploy a release in Bamboo?

[Alessio Massaro]

Hi there

How do I automatically tag the code in Stash (Git) when I deploy a release in Bamboo?

I've looked at the documentation. In several places it implies that it can be done, but I could not find any indication of how to it.

Also, I could not find any tasks callable from deployment projects in Bamboo to do it.

I bet I'm just looking in the wrong places.

Any help appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi Alessio,

As far as I understand there isn't a pre-built task in Bamboo for Git (only SVN under the name "VCS Tagging Task").

For the moment you would have to write a custom script tag that does the tag and push manually. You might be interested in the follow issue:
