There is no way to delete a git tag from a remote repository using NetBeans

    Description

      Steps to reproduce:
      1) Create local tag (for example 8.0.1)
      2) Push changes to the upstream
      3) Can see tags using the GitHub releases page.
      4) Remove tag using an integrated git repository.
      5) Push changes to the upstream using (git repository browser -> remote -> push...)
      Expected result
      1) Netbeans detects that there is a missing local tag and the tag exists in the remote repository.
      2) NetBeans asks whether i want to delete a locally missing tag from the remote repository.
      3) I agree. NetBeans perform removal of the tag from the remote repo.
      4) NetBeans logs removal in the output window of git.

       

      Real result:
      1) NetBeans ignores locally deleted tags.
      2) The "Push to Remote Repository" dialog (git repository browser -> remote -> push...) doesn't show options to delete from the remote repository browser locally deleted tag.
      3) After performing fetch from remote NetBeans restores locally deleted.

      adds info
      Currently, NetBeans can remove branches and I think the functionality of removal a tag should look like removal a branch.
