Actual Results
When a user activates the "Source branch" button, the "tags" tab that appears inside is incorrectly associated with the first tab ( branches) and lacks the visual label for the "Enter a tags name" input field. As a result, screen reader users might not understand the purpose of the input field effectively.
Expected Results
Provide a unique and descriptive label for the discussed form field using the <label> element. This will help screen reader users understand the purpose of the form field.
If this solution is not feasible, then provide an appropriate aria label such as "Enter a tag name"
Note: Before implementing the changes in a label, confirm this with your content design team.
