Creating a custom git command in Windows

  1. create a cmd/bat file with the command. E.g. retag.cmd, save it in C:\git-scripts for example

  2. add your git commands to the file. For example, this set of commands deletes the specified tag from your current branch both locally and remotely, then tags it with the same tag and pushes the change remotely

    git tag -d %1

    git push origin :refs/tags/%1

    git tag %1

    git push origin tag %1

  3. run this command from your console

    git config --global alias.retag '!C:/git-scripts/retag.bat'

  4. use your custom command

    git retag V_10_2
