iterate through tags of repo

[tieskedh]

In some projects, the releases are represented b tags only (eg. jhy/jsoup). for more info see https://github.com/bcit-ci/CodeIgniter/issues/3421. In these examples, the releases are empty. as stated, the (unreliable) way to get the same goal is to iterate through the tags.

My question is: How can I iterate through the tags of a repo?

@yegor256 please, pay attention to this issue

@tieskedh I don't think it's possible, but I may be wrong. Try to find it in Google. If GitHub API allows that we most certainly can help. Otherwise, you should checkout the repo and use git directly.

It is possible to iterate over the tags of a repo in Github API v3: See https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#list-tags
