Proposed Changes

In 'https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/blob/main/docs/installation/upgrading.md#option-b-check-out-a-git-release', the user is advised to use git describe --tags $(git rev-list --tags --max-count=1)

Currently, this returns 'v4.3.0-beta1', which is probably not what the user wants. This is particularly bad if a script/playbook is used for updates.

This really feels like it should be easier...

git ls-remote --tags https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox.git \
  | grep -o 'refs/tags/v[0-9]*\.[0-9]*\.[0-9]*$' \
  | tail -n 1 \
  | sed 's|refs/tags/||'
