How can one publish older tags on dockerhub?

Question

How can one publish older github tags on dockerhub? I am not seeing any info on this in their documentation.

This is needed if you move a project from one organization to another. For example if the first org has a typo in it or if the owning org has changed.

One can do this by manually creating a build rule for the old tag.

• go to build
• click configure automatic builds
• add a build rule by clicking on the +
• set source_type to tag
• set both source and docker tag to your tag, like 1.0.0
• click save and build
• trigger the rule if it does not build
• repeat those steps for all of your old tags
