I assume you'd loose the ability to work with them as tags though?

git checkout v0123

git difftool v0123 v0158

are quite useful. Didn't know it had a performance impact.




Good point. Might still be worth it though. When fetching all tags it becomes ridiculous after just a few thousand builds.


I'm only up to about 2000 but I haven't really seen slowdowns or other issues.


Maybe it’s because of some setting that always fetches tags? Just writing the branches to the console on fetch seems to take a while.
