Our documentation for GitHub Actions suggests to use fetch-depth: 0 in order to do a deep (not shallow) clone.
https://github.com/zowe-actions/octorelease/blob/master/docs/recipes.md#github-actions

In actions/checkout@v3, a new option fetch-tags was added that is independent of fetch-depth.
If this provides enough Git history for Octorelease to work correctly, it would be more efficient then fetching everything.
Thanks to @zFernand0 for suggesting this 😋

In addition to Octorelease itself, lerna may depend on Git history being present. See lerna/lerna#2542

Can't use fetch-tags until actions/checkout#1471 is fixed
