What are you seeing?

Hi everyone. I have two repositories in Azure Devops: first with pipelines YAML code and second with Nuget packages code and Girversion config file.

I have such pipeline code

parameters:
  - name: branchName
    displayName: Branch name for repository to use code from for manual launch (feature/* - for features, hotfix/* - for hotfixes, release/* - for releases, main - for main branch, dev - for dev branch)
    type: string
    default: dev

resources:
  repositories:
    - repository: nuget_repository
      type: git
      name: NugetProject/NugetRepo
      ref: ${{ parameters.branchName }}
      trigger:
        branches:
          include:
            - main
            - dev
            - release/*

trigger: none

  vmImage: ubuntu-latest

    - task: gitversion/execute@1
      displayName: Determine Version

        configFilePath: ./GitVersion.yml

    - script: echo current version is $(GitVersion.SemVer)
      displayName: 'Display calculated version'
      
    - task: Bash@3
      inputs:
        targetType: 'inline'
        script: echo "##vso[task.setvariable variable=version]$(GitVersion.SemVer)"
      displayName: 'Update build number'
      
    - task: DotNetCoreCLI@2
      displayName: Restore packages

      displayName: 'Install or update ReportGenerator'
      condition: and(succeeded(), ne(variables['Build.Reason'], 'PullRequest'))
    
    - script: 'reportgenerator -reports:$(Agent.TempDirectory)/**/coverage.cobertura.xml -targetdir:$(Build.SourcesDirectory)/coverlet/reports -reporttypes:"Cobertura"'
      displayName: 'Generate Code Coverage report'
      condition: and(succeeded(), ne(variables['Build.Reason'], 'PullRequest'))
      
    - task: PublishCodeCoverageResults@1

    - task: NuGetCommand@2

      condition: and(succeeded(), ne(variables['Build.Reason'], 'PullRequest'))

        command: 'pack'

        versionEnvVar: GitVersion.SemVer

    - task: NuGetCommand@2
      displayName: Push packages to feed
      condition: and(succeeded(), ne(variables['Build.Reason'], 'PullRequest'))
      inputs:
        command: 'push'
        packagesToPush: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/**/*.nupkg;!$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/**/*.symbols.nupkg'
        nuGetFeedType: 'internal'
        publishVstsFeed: 'FeedId'

During pipeline execution gitversion/execute@1 task reads Gitversion config file from NugetRepo, but instead of using branch names from that NugetRepo, it uses branch name form repo with pipelines YAML code.

What is expected?

I'm running pipeline from dev branch of infrastructure repo using feature/123 branch of Nuget packages repo.
I'm expecting to have package with 1.0.0-feature/123 version, but instead I'm having 1.0.0-dev

Steps to Reproduce

Create repo with pipeline.
Create repo with packages.
Run pipeline.
