Update github tags with new commits
Create a branch with the tag
	git branch {tagname}-branch {tagname}
	git checkout {tagname}-branch
Include the fix manually if it's just a change ....
	git add .
	git ci -m "Fix included" # or cherry-pick the commit, whatever is easier
	git cherry-pick {num_commit}
Delete and recreate the tag locally
	git tag -d {tagname}
	git tag {tagname}
Delete and recreate the tag remotely
	git push origin :{tagname} # deletes original remote tag
	git push origin {tagname} # creates new remote tag
