-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there,
I'm working on a git-versioned project that I'd like to display it's version number for development versions like this: 1.2.3-dev (commit abc1234 on devel, 12/4/10) CMake's FindGit module seems to be quite limited as it just gives me the path to git's executable file, leaving it on me to invoke the necessary EXECUTE_PROCESS() commands to find the current git branch and commit. After some googling, I found this project which added a function GIT_TREE_INFO() that provides information on the current commit: http://trac.evemu.org/browser/trunk/cmake/FindGit.cmake?rev=872 Inspired by this, I wrote another function to get the current branch: FUNCTION(GIT_BRANCH_INFO DIR PREFIX) EXECUTE_PROCESS(COMMAND "${GIT_EXECUTABLE}" branch --no-color WORKING_DIRECTORY "${DIR}" RESULT_VARIABLE GIT_RESULT OUTPUT_VARIABLE GIT_FULL_BRANCH ERROR_VARIABLE GIT_ERROR OUTPUT_STRIP_TRAILING_WHITESPACE) IF(NOT ${GIT_RESULT} EQUAL 0) MESSAGE(SEND_ERROR "Command '${GIT_EXECUTABLE} branch --no-color' failed with following output:\n${GIT_ERROR}") ENDIF(NOT ${GIT_RESULT} EQUAL 0) STRING(REGEX MATCH "^\\* *([^ ]*)$" GIT_ACTIVE_BRANCH "${GIT_FULL_BRANCH}") SET("${PREFIX}_BRANCH" "${CMAKE_MATCH_1}" PARENT_SCOPE) ENDFUNCTION(GIT_BRANCH_INFO) Any chance to get this and the function from the evemu project into official CMake's FindGit.cmake? I'm not sure about their license, but the sourcecode seems to be licensed under LGPL -- if that's too restrictive I can write another function providing the same functionality.
