Versioning

Simple Tag git tag -a "v1.0.0"

Tag with Explanation git tag -a "v1.0.0" -m "Something about the tag"

Latest Version git describe

If the last commit was tagged, you get the -a version back. If you have commited since the last tag, you get the -a plus the commit hash.

Adding version to create-react-app

package.json

"scripts" :  {
  "build" : "REACT_APP_VERSION=$(git describe) react-scripts build"
}

index.html

<meta name="version" content="%REACT_APP_VERSION%">

Adding version to gradle build

https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/tutorial_java_projects.html https://ryanharter.com/blog/2013/07/30/automatic-versioning-with-git-and-gradle/

build.gradle

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'

def getVersion = { ->
    def stdout = new ByteArrayOutputStream()
    exec {
        commandLine 'git', 'describe', '--tags'
        standardOutput = stdout
    }
    return stdout.toString().trim()
}

version = getVersion()

jar {
    manifest {
        attributes 'Implementation-Title': 'Gradle Quickstart',
                   'Implementation-Version': version
    }
}

Additionally git describe --tags --abbrev=0 will give the tag without the commit hash
