Description

Our repository has grown and we now see git sha hash collisions and 7 characters are not enough. In our case 7 character long git sha hash we receive at the tag output isn't enough to uniquely tag an image.

> git checkout  356defb
error: short object ID 356defb is ambiguous
hint: The candidates are:
hint:   356defb93 commit 2024-09-11 - Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into release/v3.4
hint:   356defbc8 blob
error: pathspec '356defb' did not match any file(s) known to git

Can we use the output of the git rev-parse --short=7 to generate the tag so we can uniquely tag?

Expected behaviour

Tags output to be unique for all git commits

Actual behaviour

Tage output is not unique for all git commits
