No, you can use tags OR branches (or both)

I don’t know if JVM supports branches yet off the top of my head

OK, so the main Java API does not yet support branches, but you can do it with JSON in the relevant system property: https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-jvm/pull/1471

(basically, that bypasses the usual validation and just passes JSON straight to the broker)
