Forcing the next version to be a (patch|minor|major) release always uses the highest existing tag #1392

Description

Question

When running the version command on a hotfix branch, the new version is based on the tags in the hotfix branch's history. This is expected and what I want.

But when doing the same with --patch, the new version is a patch increase of the highest tag in the repo.

In the log attached below, this gives 1.4.1 as the new version.

Is this expected behavior?

Configuration

Semantic Release Configuration
[tool.semantic_release.branches.main]
match = "(main|master)"
prerelease_token = "rc"
prerelease = false

[tool.semantic_release.branches.hotfix]
match = "hotfix/*"
prerelease_token = "rc"
prerelease = false
