I have a snap which uses `snapcraftctl set-version` to set its version from the latest Git tag. The `snapcraft remote-build` fails to get the tag and set the right version. This is because the temporary remote source repo created and used for the build has no tags. Note that this is NOT a problem when the version is taken using `version: git` in snapcraft.yml. In that case, remote build reads the git tag before sending the build data to Launchpad. The `snapcraft remote-build` first sends the build data to Launchpad by creating a temporary repository and using it to build the snap: ``` $ snapcraft remote-build snapcraft remote-build is experimental and is subject to change - use with caution.
