git fetch --unshallow --tags might not be enough?

No, from my testing everything works fine! 🙌

Travis doesn't use the --single-branch option when cloning, at least not on recent builds.

That said, even wit the --single-branch option it should work. This option clone only one branch and therefore doing a git fetch will fetch only the commits of that branch.
As we want to retrieve only the tags in the history of the branch it's not a problem, on the contrary.

Actually I use git tag --merge HEAD to retrieve the tags and make sure to retrieve only the ones in the current branch history, in case the repo was cloned without --single-branch

@felixfbecker did you think there might still be a problem here? Or should we close the issue?

Thanks for the feedback and the tests!
