}Branches, tags & aliases
Create a tag
Pin a committed snapshot from a branch or tag in the same collection as an immutable tag. A tag source pins the same snapshot, not a chain of tags. Alias sources are not allowed, and source.asOf is valid only for a branch source. Omit source to use main. An empty head or unavailable asOf history returns 400; verify committed data before tagging.
