Added fetchTags feature to fetchgit, explicit and clear support for fetching all tags after the source tree fetch completes. Doing this at build-time in the fetcher is required for packages that invoke commands like 'git describe' which require tags, and since the nix store is read-only by design, it is not possible to git fetch --tags at activation- or run-time. This feature may have been possible by specifying a postFetch option including calling git fetch --tags, however doing so obfuscates the solution to this very real problem. Explicit support for fetching tags should be a first class citizen just like fetching other refs. |
