Problem

The CI build step Fetch tags (for git describe) fails with:

error: RPC failed; HTTP 504 curl 22 The requested URL returned error: 504
fatal: expected 'acknowledgments'

git fetch --tags triggers full history negotiation against the upstream FreeCAD-derived repo (~45k commits), causing HTTP 504 gateway timeouts on the Gitea instance.

Fix

Replace with a depth=1 refspec fetch that pulls only tag refs without negotiating reachable objects behind them:

git fetch --no-recurse-submodules --depth=1 origin '+refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'

This is sufficient for git describe --tags --always to resolve a version string.

The previous `git fetch --tags` triggers full history negotiation
against the upstream FreeCAD-derived repo (~45k commits), causing
HTTP 504 gateway timeouts on the Gitea instance.

Replace with a depth=1 refspec fetch that pulls only tag refs
without negotiating reachable objects behind them. This is
sufficient for `git describe --tags --always` to resolve a
version string.
