To be more precise, is there a reason we aren't instead pulling ctags as a git submodule?
Geany's CTags fork is based off of Exuberant CTags from many years ago and was heavily modified (by others, anjuta etc) to make it into a library IDEs can use for tagging. Many of the parsers were modified in Geany without changes being upstreamed, as upstream is basically dead.
There's been a fair bit of work in synchronizing Geany's fork with universal-ctags code, with the end goal of being able to use it as a submodule or direct copy of upstream in whatever fashion. There's still more work to do though.
