Description
The branches to build/branch specifier/"name" help documentation on wildcard and regex values talks only about branches, not tags.
This implies neither work with tags, but only branches. But I doubt that is the case?
It should talk about the more generic term refs, or name both types of refs explicitly: branches and tags.
