Sign upversioneer lookup: add support for detached checkouts #1041
Conversation
When doing 'git checkout <rev>' or 'git checkout <tag>' there will be no branch info: $ git branch * (detached from 96fc70b) After whitelisting '\(detached.*' we get: $ python setup.py version running version got version from git {'version': '1.2.5-1-gfd73e02', 'branch': 'HEAD', 'full': 'fd73e02f4fa9f286407ad688feeeee3ebaffea60'} Version is currently: 1.2.5-1-gfd73e02 The '-1-gfd73e02' is this commit on top of the 1.2.5 tag. While detached checkouts should be discouraged some buildsystems (e.g. OpenEmbedded) have no real way to avoid it, which is what this patch fixes. Actual people doing a checkout should use a branch.

I'm not too happy with the fact that this will then report the branch as "HEAD" in the UI, but that is something that has to be solved within versioneer first. |
