Sadly, this is quite slow, and I'm not sure if doing it built into the tag via for-each-ref would be faster? I mean obviously having to look at each commit is slower than just the tag name, but it might be faster than parsing through the log process? Though the log output has the advantage that it only shows you tags "on" a given branch.
