Hi ! this is the backport of #19557
This simple commit will ensure that we specify the "Branch" prefix when we want to create new branch. Fix #19346
Otherwise git would check between /refs/heads/tags and /refs/heads/branch and return
error: src refspec mytest matches more than one.
error: failed to push some refs to 'branch'
when there is a tag sharing the same name than the branch.
Tested also since we discussed in comments :
1 - making a branch named "thistag"
2 - creating a tag from it named "thistag"
3 - created a branch from the branch "thistag"
4 - created a PR from the new branch into branch "thistag", merged it, this works too !
Have a good day
