Description Martin 2018-03-13 20:11:54 UTC

[This bug report has been filed for frameworks/kauth but applies equally to several other frameworks components as shown below.]

Since approx. version 5.37.0, the git repositories of several frameworks components do not contain tags anymore for released versions. For example, frameworks/kauth has

v4.100.0-rc1
v4.100.0-rc2
v4.95.0
v4.96.0
v4.97.0
v4.98.0
v4.99.0-rc1

v5.16.0
v5.16.0-rc1

v5.17.0-rc1

v5.4.0
v5.4.0-rc1

v5.5.0-rc1
v5.6.0
v5.6.0-rc1
v5.7.0
v5.7.0-rc1
v5.8.0
v5.8.0-rc1
v5.9.0
v5.9.0-rc1

It would be beneficial to correctly tag releases in all the frameworks components; for example, karchive has (nearly) all tags (only 5.45.0 is currently missing):

Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2018-03-30 14:44:33 UTC

Can you double-check? I only looked at https://cgit.kde.org/kauth.git/refs/ and https://cgit.kde.org/kbookmarks.git/refs/ and see tags for v5.44.0 and older versions.

Comment 2 Martin 2018-03-30 15:02:09 UTC

Interesting.

What I am actually doing is that I have cloned the repositories from git://anongit.kde.org/<component>.git and keep them up-to-date by regularly executing "git pull --all".

I have just freshly cloned git://anongit.kde.org/kauth.git, and this indeed gives me all the tags.

I'll close the PR because the issue is on my side.

Could you tell me how I get the new tags in an incremental fashion?

Thanks for the help.

Comment 3 Martin 2018-03-30 15:30:53 UTC

O.k. so I changed the pull invocation to "git pull --all --tags", and that seems to do the trick.

I don't understand why this worked with "git pull --all" up to a certain point and then stopped fetching more tags.
