This plugin adds some keys containing SCM information. It may be useful in conjuction with sbt-buildinfo.

Currently only Git and Mercurial (via command-line commands) are supported

Add to your project/plugins.sbt:

addSbtPlugin("fi.onesto.sbt" % "sbt-buildnumber" % "0.1.0")

With sbt-buildinfo you can use the provided keys in buildInfoKeys. For example:

buildInfoKeys := Seq[BuildInfoKey](organization, name, version, shortBuildNumber)

The available keys are:

• scmType: Scm - detected version control system
• unstagedChanges: Boolean – true if the current repository has unstaged changes
• uncommittedChanges: Boolean – true if the current repository has uncommitted changes
• untrackedFiles: Seq[File] – list of files that are not in version control
• buildNumber: Option[String] – current revision of the repository
• shortBuildNumber: Option[String] – short version of the current revision of the repository
• branchName: Option[String] – the current branch name
• decoratedBuildNumber: Option[String] – current revision with decorations
• decoratedShortBuildNumber: Option[String] – current revision with decorations (short version)

The values default to false, None or an empty list if the project is not under version control of if there is an error.

The decorated build numbers are the corresponding build number with markers similar to __git_ps1.

• * – project contains unstaged changes
• % – project contains untracked files
• + - project contains staged but uncommitted changes
