2.1.0: the same name used as branch name and git tag

Because of that

the given path has multiple possibilities: #<Git::Ref:0x00007fd90e5de0a0>, #<Git::Ref:0x00007fd90e51a100>

Solution could be rename 2.1.0 branch to 2.1 or 2.1.x.

This issue is now causing ModSecurity build failures when trying to build OpenLiteSpeed. This is causing a major problem.

Same here. The only solution is to download the branch. Change tags to heads.

That's not the same thing. This will get you the tip of the branch not the tag. And it can change any time.
