jgitver - maven plugin: Derive version from Git commit, including Git SHA8 String and SNAPSHOT marker

Question

I'll try to keep this question short and simple:

with the jgitver maven plugin I can easily create versions from Git tags. The ${jgitver.calculated_version} variable that I can use in my .pom file will, by default, behave like this:

set Git tag "v1.0.0"
version: 1.0.0
do Git commit
version: 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT

Is it possible to (and if so how can I) include the commit hash in the version number, like so?

set Git tag "v1.0.0"
version: 1.0.0-162ad57
do Git commit
version: 1.0.1-ff8cb8a-SNAPSHOT

The important part is that version numbers from simple (not tagged) commits also end with "SNAPSHOT".

did the provided answer resolved your question? – Matthieu BROUILLARD Sep 18 '18 at 07:36 — Matthieu BROUILLARD, Sep 18 '18 at 07:36

Yes it is possible.

in the .mvn/jgitver.config.xml file set the property useGitCommitId to true. You can also define the expected length of the SHA1 using gitCommitIdLength

something like:

<useGitCommitId>true</useGitCommitId>
<gitCommitIdLength>8</gitCommitIdLength>  <!-- between [8,40] -->

Hi, I tried using jgitver-maven-plugin [1.2.1] and [1.3.0]. This unfortunately only works with "false", if i use "true" then -SNAPSHOT is appended, but no commitID – Brixomatic Oct 10 '18 at 06:45
there is IMHO no interest in having the SHA1 together with SNAPSHOT; open an issue on jgitver if you want to discuss further your needs. thanks. – Matthieu BROUILLARD Oct 19 '18 at 09:37
