Git has the ls-remote command which allows to remotely retrieve the list of references.

We want to use it to list remote tags without cloning the entire repository for example.

To implement the same behaviour with go-git we need to create a Remote structure by hand and use the List function.

I have added a runnable example which prints out the list of tags of a sample repository.
