[Ideas] Should prune tags after fetching from GP repo

[Ray-Eldath]

Description

This is just a reminder for those who stumbled upon strange make create-demo-cluster error relating to CBDB's version. It's likely that you've fetched from another remote, possibly GP or CBDB on our internal GitLab server, then switched back to the main branch of CBDB on GitHub (i.e., here), then find that your make create-demo-cluster no longer works because CBDB reported a version number v7 instead of v1. This incident was reported at least four times by me and three co-workers.

This is because CBDB use git describe --always to generate version constant. When another remote are fetched, those tags that are not existent on here are also fetched, casing version constant to be changed to a non-existent value.

To solve this, you should run git fetch --prune --prune-tags to prune tags not exists on CBDB master.
