Releases keep failing

[BYK]

Hi,

I've been getting lightly spammed by these failures for quite a while now: https://github.com/getsentry/develop/runs/6442571103?check_suite_focus=true

Would be great to fix whatever is broken and even better, find a way for them to not mention me? 😁

#581 should stop the spam for you @BYK, investigating root cause of failures ...

No tags can describe 'sha'

Oh! Is this related to getsentry/craft#343? Were we using annotated tags prior? Why doesn't this fail everywhere, then? Why only in this repo? I just a bunch of prepare release actions work yesterday/today with the self-hosted release. 🤔

[chadwhitacre]

getsentry/craft#343 landed ~3 months ago and failures go back ~9 months, though logs are lost past 2 months.

I have a local repro with latest craft. I think this is going to end up as an issue over there ...

$ craft prepare 10.0.0 --dry-run

Bug is in here.

$ git describe --tags --abbrev=0

Filed getsentry/craft#395, but ...

$ git tag
21.9.0

🤔

[chadwhitacre]

The commit that 21.9.0 points to is not on any branch.

$ git branch --contains 6c67e883ec9ef6e89385e03d214dfe9c3f2c995c
$

[chadwhitacre]

Looks like the release commit (carrying the tag) is expected to be on the default branch.

$ git describe --tags --abbrev=0
22.5.0
$ git branch --contains de07b479af8834d7e5d629cb152cf45ac6f02ba5
* master

#581 merged so light spam should stop @BYK. 🙏
