Installing collection at tag 7.13.2 is defaulting to 7.12.0 each time

[wkhayrattee]

I have tried installing the collection via both commandline and via requirements.yml.
But for the sake of this report, I am choosing the commandline version.

COMMAND:

$ ansible-galaxy collection install git+https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-collection-hardening.git,7.13.2 -vvv

OUTPUT:

ansible-galaxy [core 2.11.6]

**Note: switching to '7.13.2'.**

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:

  git switch -c <new-branch-name>

Or undo this operation with:

  git switch -

Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false

EXPECTATION

Installing 'devsec.hardening:7.13.2' to

ACTUAL RESULT

Installing 'devsec.hardening:7.12.0' to

I am not understanding this behaviour, why is it defaulting to 7.12.0?

There was a problem when releasing the new version (these failed actions: https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-collection-hardening/actions/runs/1493623367 and https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-collection-hardening/actions/runs/1493665632).

This results in git-tag 7.13.2 having the wrong version number in its galaxy.yml: https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-collection-hardening/blob/7.13.2/galaxy.yml

But you do get the current content from 7.13.2 so its just an issue with whats shown.

Installing the collection this way should also yield the correct version:

ansible-galaxy collection install devsec.hardening:7.13.2
