ICakeContext |
The context. |
| repositoryDirectoryPath |
DirectoryPath |
Path to repository. |
| renderLongFormat |
bool |
Always output the long format (the tag, the number of commits and the abbreviated commit name)
even when it matches a tag. This is useful when you want to see parts of the commit object name
in "describe" output, even when the commit in question happens to be a tagged version.
Instead of just emitting the tag name, it will describe such a commit as v1.2-0-gdeadbee
(0th commit since tag v1.2 that points at object deadbee...).
