I wasn't super sure how subsequent `git pull` works with a shallow clone, but if it works the same, then such an obvious fix makes the invention of that API solution even more painful

IIRC, the only thing that will potentially need to be changed is manually fetching the tags, since those won't be brought in. You can just do `git fetch --tags` to get all of the tag metadata though (without actually needing to pull the actual commits they reference; it just gives you the ability to look up a commit hash with a tag so that you can fetch it later).
