Subject: git pull --prune --prune-tags yields a usage error In 2.45.0
Date: Mon, 13 May 2024 19:11:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAC-6ESEfnjK1ubrzoAfUsegM55e55uKugCPSfxnBC607dmZJRA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I noticed that "git help pull" mentioned the flag --prune-tags in
conjunction with --prune, but actually supplying this flag to
"git pull" results in a usage error. For instance, the command
"git pull --prune --prune-tags" fails with a usage error. I would
have expected that this would work, since it works with "git fetch".
I could use "git fetch --prune --prune-tags" as I expected, and
"git help fetch" does describe --prune-tags on its own as well as
in the help for --prune.
I confirmed that this behavior still exists in git version 2.45.0.
