Currently, when a tag is pushed to a Git provider, it is handled as a "push" event by Pipelines as Code (PaC). If users want to access the tag value (e.g., v1.0.1) in their PipelineRun, they must extract it from the event payload using {}{{ body.ref }}{}. However, this field includes the full Git reference path — for example: refs/tags/v1.0.1

What needs to done

When a tag is pushed, PaC should expose the tag value directly — without the full refs/tags/ prefix — through a separate dynamic variable. This would simplify usage in templates and avoid the need for custom parsing.

For example: 

params:
  image: myregistry/myapp:{{ git_tag }}
