Do you know where tags for submodules are created? I found this:

https://github.com/boostorg/release-tools/blob/38ed0545ff2e0cd1f27a3aa6fbd0576d474acfec/ci_boost_release.py#L918-L925

but it looks like it only creates the tag for the superproject.

I suspect, git submodules aren't synchronized with the superproject when
tags are created.
