It would be great for our workflow to make it possible to opt out via config option of the creation of a git tag on cz bump.
Possible Solution
we could add a config option like disable_tag_creation (which defaults to false) to make it possible to optional disable the creation of the git tag.
Additional context
We just started to use commitizen so maybe our workflow isn't the best right now.
Our GitLab rules forbid to push on main and we don't want to change that. So we needed to find a way to create releases with commitizen without pushing to main. We came up with the following workflow:
create new branch localy from main
run cz bump (with changelog creation) (which create a local tag on that feature branch)
push a merge request (just the commit without the tag) to the upstream repo
have a teammate review and approve the merge request
merge the merge request
a ci pipeline will run on every merge to master with commit message "bump: version.*" and create a gitlab release for it which also creates a git tag
But this means we end up with tags on different commits locally than in our upstream repo.
We can clean things up by running
git tag -l | xargs git tag -d
git fetch --tags
but it would be good to just don't mess up things in the first place.
As I said, we're new to commitizen, so maybe there is an easier way to achive this
I have to admit, we switched to release-it with conventional-changelog and bumper plugin for our release workflow, which made our workflow work without any hacks.

This workflow would work better for my team as well

Can you expand on your workflow @bruno-fs ?

That's great @TheKangaroo ! Glad to hear you found a solution!
For reference in commitizen you could do:
cz bump --files-only --yes --changelog git commit -am "bump: release $(cz version --project)"And later on to create the tag:
Commitizen works well with git, and where commitizen is available you know
gitwill be available, this gives you a lot of flexibility.Maybe we could add this as a tutorial? 🤔
