Are those release tags on the trunk branch? Because iirc

rs

only fetches the trunk branch and Git only fetches tags on branches that are fetched. A

git pull

fetches all branches and thus all tags that are on any branch.

Yup the release tag is on my trunk (i.e.

main

for a particular repo). So even

gt rs

should fetch it if I am not wrong

Would expect so. Maybe try what happens if you do

git pull --rebase origin main

, whether it is fetched then or not. Should be fairly easily testible by deleting the tag locally if it is already present.

Tags are not actually associated with the branch - a default

git pull

fetches tags, whereas

repo sync

only fetches the trunk branch.

It does not fetch all tags unles you give

--tags

. It only fetches tags that are in the history of branches you fetch. And even if you fetch (or pull) a single branch, it should fetch the tags that are in its history. Unless it is prevented for example with

--no-tags

or by

remote.<name>.tagOpt

setting.

The older tags which were part of the trunk branch were also not fetched. I will try out

gt rs -r --tags

next time and see if they work by fetching the tags

gt rs

doesn't support fetching tags

You cannot use arbitrary Git flags on gt
