How to query

The plugin creates Commit, Tag, Branch and Author nodes.

⚠️ Please be aware that CI platforms might use an optimized strategy to fetch your git repository. Make sure to fetch all history for branches and tags depending on your needs.

Latest commit hash

{
  gitCommit(latest: { eq: true }) {
    hash
  }
}

Latest tag name

{
  gitTag(latest: { eq: true }) {
    name
  }
}

Only tag names including a dot will be considered (like v1.2.3 or 1.2 but not newest-feature).

Current Branches

{
  gitBranch(current: { eq: true }) {
    name
  }
}

Authors

{
  allGitAuthor(sort: { fields: name }) {
    nodes {
      name
      email
    }
    totalCount
  }
}
