Summary
Some teams find it necessary to block all tags from being pushed to a repository.
All current tags will still be available.
Solution
Using branch permissions, add the following branch permission pattern to "Prevent all changes":
refs/tags/**
Restrict it to an admin account so that no other users can push tags.
