+### tag_semver
+Use `tag_semver` when you want to push tags using the semver syntax by their git name (e.g. `refs/tags/v1.2.3`). This will push four
+docker tags: `1.2.3`, `1.2` and `1`. A prefix 'v' will automatically be removed.
+> CAUTION: Images produced by this feature can be override by branches with the same name - without a way to restore.
