Why would you want to shoehorn Git (a distributed version control system) into the way SubVersion (a client/server based version control system) works? They are fundamentally different. Yes Git can be used kind-of like a client/server version control system, but then you loose pretty much all the functionality that makes a distributed version control system so much better. Anyway, I'm not 100% sure what you want to achieve, but do you know the git-describe command? https://git-scm.com/docs/git-describe It gives you a version-like result. A version (tag or branch name - tag by default), number of commits since that 'major event' in the repository history, and then the SHA1 of the actual commit you are on. eg: $ git describe v1.4.1-903-g6e8a7fbb That output means the current HEAD commit is a descendant of "v1.4.1" tag. It has 903 commits since the "v1.4.1" tag. The HEAD commit's SHA1 value is 6e8a7fbb. The "g" prefix is simply to say "git" was used.
