I have run the filter program multiple times. However, the tags do not seem to have transferred over to my fork, so in my case DART only prints 'unknown'. I'm still not sure how I would transfer those tags over.

I'm struggling to get the CI build checks to pass, which is strange because it builds on my machine fine. It looks like it's unable to find the file containing the function that prints the version?
