Running vcgencmd version outputs a version ID which references a commit hash on the private git repository containing the firmware source code. There is no way for a member of the public to determine which commit in this repository contains the matching firmware binary, other than by cloning the repository and testing every firmware version on a raspberry pi until they find the one with the correct ID.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
The raspberrypi-bootloader package (which installs the firmware) has the revision in the changelog. zcat /usr/share/doc/raspberrypi-bootloader/changelog.Debian.gz | head
If you used rpi-update, it installs a /boot/.firmware_revision, containing the revision.
If you end up with mystery firmware outside of the bootloader package or any half-sensible tool, the date given by vcgencmd version is a good indicator of the firmware version.
