FWIW if you configure your external repo as the source for ELPA to fetch
your package from, then there are no problems at all.

For example, https://git.savannah.nongnu.org/cgit/delight.git/refs/
has version tags from 1.0 .. 1.7 and is included in GNU ELPA with
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/elpa.git/tree/elpa-packages?id=06e26055b3377#n119

ELPA does not fetch the tags from the external repo, and those tags are
not needed within the ELPA repository, so it's fine.
