Fetching updated tags

[miquella]

We have a repository where particular tags are updated (force-pushed) regularly. For example, the latest-dev tag is moved to show what was most recently deployed to the dev environment.

Since these tags are core to our workflow, I updated the .git/config to fetch tags:

[remote "origin"]
    # …
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*

Unfortunately, jj git fetch will only fetch new tags, it never updates tags that have been replaced. This has caused my to accidentally create a change on top of a very old tag without realizing it.

Running a git fetch after jj git fetch resolves the issue:

❯ git fetch
From …
 t [tag update]        latest-dev   -> latest-dev

As I have proven to myself to be unable to remember to do this when needed, I have come asking if there is a way to configure this behavior for this repo? (or perhaps I've done something entirely incorrectly, in which case, I would love to know)

#7175 and/or #7275 will fix the problem. jj doesn't use the configured fetch refspecs.

Got it, that makes sense. Thanks for the response!
