potiuk opened a new pull request, #71304: URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/71304
Adds `--skip-git-fetch` to `breeze release-management prepare-provider-distributions`. Building a provider wave in batches re-fetches the full history and every tag from apache/airflow on each invocation. That is slow, and on an unreliable network it is the step most likely to fail — taking a whole batch of providers down with it, even though the tags fetched moments earlier are still current. Today the only way to avoid the fetch is `--skip-tag-check`, which also gives up the tag check itself. The new flag keeps the tag check and validates against the tags already in the local repository. `classify-provider-changes` and `prepare-provider-documentation` already offer the same escape hatch, so this closes a gap rather than introducing a new concept. --- ##### Was generative AI tooling used to co-author this PR? - [X] Yes — Claude Code (Opus 5) Generated-by: Claude Code (Opus 5) following [the guidelines](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/contributing-docs/05_pull_requests.rst#gen-ai-assisted-contributions) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
