I create a git tag to mark each deploy and allow easy diffs between deploys, etc. During each deploy, I run "git describe --abbrev=0 > db/tag.txt" to output the current tag to a file. That's then used in the code when I want to check the release/build version. James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
