How do I see multiple Git tags in Version Control tool window?

Answered

Hi Folks. I find the tags shown in the version control tool window to be a little hard to identify. It's OK in the case of only a few tags, but more than that and it's hard to see them all. What I expected is that clicking on the commit would show the tags on the right side of the window where file details and optionally the commit message are, but I don't see the tags there. I understand I can hover the mouse over the tags to see them, but that doesn't work in the case where hovering over an auto-recognized URL causes it to expand and push the tags to the right. In that case, if I move the mouse over towards the tags, they go back to their same spot. It's a whack-a-mole situation. It would be helpful to see the tags on the right. Thank you.

References (branches and tags) are listed in the Details pane, right after commit message and author:

BTW, on the screenshots, there are no tags, only local and remote branches. Anyway, the full list of references is shown in the Details.

Jeez, sorry I missed that. I tend to hide the message field :-O Also, my Git terminology is weak. I meant branches. I'm off today.
