Description
Steps:
1.
Create branch - CICD-304
Push some code into that branch and trigger GitHub action workflow
It will generate version like v1.0.1-CICD-304.0 (Working as expected)
Create another branch - CICD-304-Test
Push some code into that branch and trigger GitHub action workflow
It will generate version like v1.0.1-CICD-304-Test.0 (Working as expected)
Now if we push the code into branch CICD-304, and workflow ran, it is giving error This tag already exists. Skipping the tag creation. Ideally it should create version like v1.0.1-CICD-304.1, but it is not. and it is showing previous version as v1.0.1-CICD-304-Test.0

Research direction
No source file or test is identified in the issue. Reproduce the workflow using the CICD-304, CICD-304-Test, and CICD-304 branch sequence, then trace the action's version and tag handling. Done means the later CICD-304 run creates v1.0.1-CICD-304.1 instead of skipping the existing tag or showing the other branch's version.
