-This pushes both the new commit and the annotated tag. The tag is the source of truth for verification.
+**`--follow-tags` is critical.** Without it, only the commit is pushed — the annotated tag (with checksums) stays local. The release is incomplete until the tag is on the remote.
+
+### Forgot to use `--follow-tags`?
+
+If you already ran `git push` without it, push just the tag:
+
+```bash
+git push origin v1.1
+```
+
+The tag is the source of truth for verification. Without it on the remote, nobody can verify.
