The build was failing with the error: ```error: pathspec 'v1.101603.1' did not match any file(s) known to git``` This occurred because `git clone` does not fetch all tags by default, and the tag `v1.101603.1` was not available in the local repository context. To fix this, added `git fetch --tags` before the checkout and used the explicit `tags/` namespace to ensure the tag is recognized.
Resolved an error during the Docker build: ```error: pathspec 'op-node/v1.14.1' did not match any file(s) known to git``` This was caused by attempting to checkout a tag before fetching all tags from the remote repository. By default, `git clone` does not retrieve all tags unless explicitly requested. Added `git fetch --tags` before the checkout command and used the full tag path `tags/op-node/$OPNODE_VERSION` to ensure the reference is correctly resolved.

how about clone with single branch?

Yes, it should work
RUN git clone --branch ${OPGETH_VERSION} --single-branch https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/op-geth.git

Issue
The Docker build was failing during git checkout due to missing Git tags:
Solution
This issue occurred because
git clonedoes not automatically fetch all tags, especially when the tags are lightweight or not associated with the default branch. As a result, the requested tag could not be found duringcheckout.To resolve this, we explicitly fetch all tags before checking out the version and use the full
tags/<tag>path to ensure Git interprets it correctly.Changes
