If a transient build error (build system hiccup) prevented the build
from completing, you should be able to rebuild from the same tag.
Yes, I know there are some failure modes where this does not work, but
we're working on addressing those, and they should be the minority of
cases.
True, but if it's something like 'a build dependent package is broken',
you're unlikely to remember to just re-push the task two days later
when it's fixed. In any case, turning off force tag would lead to
either:
- needless release & changelog inflation
or
- usage of scratch builds just to test that it builds everywhere
Actually, do we even know if disabling force tag can be worked around?
