Thank you for filling out a Git bug report! Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue. What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue) cd '/'; cd '/'; rm --force --recursive -- './test_git'; mkdir "$_"; cd "$_"; mkdir --parents -- './server' './client'; git -C './server' init --bare './repo.git' git --git-dir='./server/repo.git' --work-tree='.' commit --allow-empty -m "$((++number))" git -C './server/repo.git' branch branch1; git -C './server/repo.git' branch branch2; git -C './server/repo.git' tag tag1; git -C './server/repo.git' tag tag2 git -C './client' init './repo' git -C './client/repo' remote add server 'file://'"$(realpath './server/repo.git')" git -C './client/repo' remote --verbose git -C './client/repo' config list --local --show-scope --show-origin git -C './client/repo' branch --list --all --verbose --verbose git -C './client/repo' tag --list git -C './client/repo' fetch --all git -C './client/repo' branch --list --all --verbose --verbose git -C './client/repo' tag --list git -C './server/repo.git' branch --delete branch1; git -C './server/repo.git' branch branch3; git -C './server/repo.git' tag --delete tag1; git -C './server/repo.git' tag tag3 git -C './client/repo' remote prune --dry-run server git -C './client/repo' fetch --prune --dry-run server git -C './client/repo' config set --local 'fetch.pruneTags' 'true' git -C './client/repo' remote prune --dry-run server git -C './client/repo' fetch --prune --dry-run server git -C './client/repo' config unset --local 'fetch.pruneTags' git -C './client/repo' config set --local --append 'remote.server.fetch' '+refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*' git -C './client/repo' remote prune --dry-run server git -C './client/repo' fetch --prune --dry-run server git -C './client/repo' remote prune server git -C './client/repo' branch --list --all --verbose --verbose git -C './client/repo' tag --list What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior) https://git-scm.com/docs/git-remote says: `git remote prune <remote>…` is equivalent to `git fetch --prune <remote>`, except that no new references will be fetched. so: `git remote prune <remote>…` should prune tags when `fetch.pruneTags` is `true`. (`git remote prune <remote>…` should prune tags when `remote.server.fetch` has `+refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*`.) `git fetch --dry-run` should print same tag once. What happened instead? (Actual behavior) Setting `fetch.pruneTags` to `true` does not make `git remote prune <remote>…` prune tags. (`git remote prune <remote>…` prunes tags when `remote.server.fetch` has `+refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*`.) `git fetch --dry-run` prints same tag twice. What's different between what you expected and what actually happened? Anything else you want to add: Please review the rest of the bug report below. You can delete any lines you don't wish to share.
