Universal / Versioning and releases

Releases

  • Tag releases with version, e.g. v1.3.1

Artifacts

  • Name pattern: <app-name>-<version>-<revision?>-<type?>.<extension>, e.g.
    • my-app-v0.0.1.exe
    • my-app-v1.3.1-setup.exe
    • my-app-v2.0.0-5-standalone.exe
    • my-app-v5.3.0-88-gcc7b71f-standalone.exe

The following command returns version and revision from git:

git describe --always --tags --dirty

It returns

  • commit hash as revision when no tagging is used (e.g. gcc7b71f)
  • tag name as version when on a tag (e.g. v2.1.0, used for releases)
  • tag name, revision number since last tag and commit hash when after a tag (e.g. v5.3.0-88-gcc7b71f)
  • same as above plus a "dirty" tag if the working tree has local modifications (e.g. v5.3.0-88-gcc7b71f-dirty)
