# Git

> Since v1.14.0.

This allows you to change the behavior of some Git commands.

```yaml
# .goreleaser.yaml
git:
  # What should be used to sort tags when gathering the current and previous
  # tags if there are more than one tag in the same commit.
  #
  # Default: '-version:refname'
  tag_sort: -version:creatordate

  # What should be used to specify prerelease suffix while sorting tags when gathering
  # the current and previous tags if there are more than one tag in the same commit.
  #
  # Since: v1.17
  prerelease_suffix: "-"

  # Regular expressions for tags to be ignored by GoReleaser.
  # This means that GoReleaser will not pick up tags that match any of the
  # provided ignores as either previous or current tags.
  #
  # Templates: allowed.
  # Since: v1.21.
  ignore_tags:
    - nightly
    - "{{.Env.FOO}}.*"
