Hello, hope you're good. I'm running some experiments in order to build a custom action that demands the tags from the repo. I noticed that it was possible, in theory, just using the fetch-tags: true, but it does not work. I can only get the tags if I use the fetch-depth: 0.
Example workflow:
jobs:
custom-action:
runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
steps:
- name: Checkout repo
uses: actions/checkout@v4
with:
path: tagaction
fetch-tags: true
- name: Try to get the tags
run: |
cd tagaction
git tag --sort -creatordate
The last command (git tag --sort -creatordate) shows nothing in this case.
But, if I use the fetch-depth: 0, it lists correctly the tags from the repository.
