+Broker first enumerates all references in the git repository.
 
 _Note that tags cannot be modified; once a tag has been created to "modify" it in `git` requires that the tag is_

 After enumerating the list of references, Broker then uses its local database to filter any reference that it has already scanned.
 Note that this means that a modified tag would then be filtered at this step,
