As of 2023-10-04, the cursors used by GitHub's GraphQL API when listing a repository's tags simply encode the total number of tags in the repository at the given point, and if a tag is deleted, the final cursor "decreases". Thus, if reponews reports a tag for a tracked repository, and then N tags are deleted from the repository, reponews will not report any more tags for that repository until after N+1 more tags are added, and then it'll only report the most recent one.
