To get the checkout version into your app, one way (I've been using
successfully) is this:
With the help of a little script (like the following Lua one) extract the
checkout version into a file that is included from your app.
This file is generated as part of the make build process and is itself not
part of the repo, i.e., 'fossil clean' removes it.
(You'll have to change the fo:write(...) line according to your
requirements.)
--==============================================================================
-- Creates checkout.inc file for including Fossil checkout version in source
--==============================================================================
function run(cmd)
assert(type(cmd) == 'string','cmd should be the string of the command to
run')
print('Running...',cmd)
local f = io.popen(cmd)
local ans = f:read('*a')
f:close()
return ans
end
ans = run('f tim current')
fo = io.open('checkout.inc','w')
for line in ans:gmatch('%[(%x+)%].+%*CURRENT%*') do
fo:write(" fcc ' * "..line.."'")
end
fo:close()

Subject: [fossil-users] Automatically put version / checkout infomation into
source code on commit
Dear all,
we've been using fossil for over a year now and are quiet happy with it.
The next thing we'd like to do is to automatically put some version
infomation from the fossil repository into the sourcecode. This will
help us to know which checkout version was used for a specific build /
executable.
1. Is this possible with fossil?
2. What approach can you recommend?
Thanks,
Michael
