A team uses Git tags for releases. They accidentally moved a tag to a different commit and pushed it. They need to restore the tag to the original commit. They also want to ensure that the tag is not accidentally moved again. What should you do?

Delete the tag and recreate it at the original commit.

Force-update the tag to the original commit and push with --force, then configure branch permissions to deny tag deletion and creation by non-authorized users.

Use 'git revert' on the tag move.

Use 'git reset' to move the tag back.

A development team uses git-fat to manage large binary assets in a Git repository. A developer accidentally committed a large file directly to the master branch and pushed it. The team wants to remove the large file from the repository history to reduce the clone size, but they also need to recover a specific version of that file that was committed before the accidental push. What should you do?

Use git reset --hard to the commit before the accidental push, then force-push to the remote.

Use git rm --cached to remove the file from the index, then commit the change and force-push to the remote.

Use git filter-repo to remove the file from history, then use git cat-file to retrieve the blob from the original commit.

Use git filter-branch to remove the file from history, then use git reflog to recover the file from the local repository.

Which command is used to create an annotated tag in Git?

git tag -a v1.0 -m 'Release 1.0'
