Forgejo was initially a soft fork of Gitea but they knew it would very possibly become a hard fork. Using the latest tag meant your setup could break unexpectedly so I think they’d opted to not use it at all. What you want to do is use the full version “15” in this case which will keep it updated up the currently major release.
