Answer 1

In Mac SourceTree only deselect the Push all tags checkbox:

Answer 2

If you want to UPDATE a tag, let's say it 1.0.0

1. git checkout 1.0.0
2. make your changes
3. git ci -am 'modify some content'
4. git tag -f 1.0.0
5. delete remote tag on github: git push origin --delete 1.0.0
6. git push origin 1.0.0
