This PR fixes several issues with tag handling in the checkout action:
1. fetch-tags: true now works (fixes#1471)
- Tags refspec is now included in getRefSpec() when fetchTags=true
- Previously tags were only fetched during a separate fetch that was
overwritten by the main fetch
2. Tag checkout preserves annotations (fixes#290)
- Tags are fetched via refspec (+refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*) instead of
--tags flag
- This fetches the actual tag objects, preserving annotations
3. Tag checkout with fetch-tags: true no longer fails (fixes#1467)
- When checking out a tag with fetchTags=true, only the wildcard
refspec is used (specific tag refspec is redundant)
Changes:
- src/ref-helper.ts: getRefSpec() now accepts fetchTags parameter and
prepends tags refspec when true
- src/git-command-manager.ts: fetch() simplified to always use --no-tags,
tags are fetched explicitly via refspec
- src/git-source-provider.ts: passes fetchTags to getRefSpec()
- Added E2E test for fetch-tags option
