I tried this out a bit: [rhaas pgsql]$ git describe --long --always --all --dirty heads/master-0-gd133982d59 [rhaas pgsql]$ git checkout head~ ...blah blah... [rhaas pgsql]$ git describe --long --always --all --dirty heads/x-218-g6393613b6a Eh, what? Hmm, maybe it's because I have a local branch called 'x' lying around from something or other. [rhaas pgsql]$ git branch -D x Deleted branch x (was 77b6b5e9ce). [rhaas pgsql]$ git describe --long --always --all --dirty tags/REL_10_BETA3-458-g6393613b6a Mmph. I understand the desire to identify the exact commit used for a build somehow, but something whose output depends on whether or not I left a branch lying around locally doesn't seem that great. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
