GitTools/GitVersion

Use convention to derive a SemVer product version from a GitFlow based repository

@anaximander23

and now it is

I want to use the NuGet version for the tag, but it ends up applying the actual string name of the variable, not the value of it

so I suspect that it's not outputting the variables as it should, or something?

Hello, I have this weird GitVersionTask error

.nuget/packages/gitversiontask/5.0.0/build/GitVersionTask.targets(10,9): error MSB4062: The "WriteVersionInfoToBuildLog" task could not be loaded from the assembly … netstandard2.0/GitVersionTask.MsBuild.dll. Assembly with same name is already loaded Confirm that the <UsingTask> declaration is correct, that the assembly and all its dependencies are available, and that the task contains a public class that implements Microsoft.Build.Framework.ITask.

when I build a solution

it works if I build each project separately

Simon Novak

@snovak7

I had more different versions of the same ProjectReference across projects inside Solution… solved

Hey guys, we are migrating from svn to git and I want to figure out how to version all of our 145+projects. Is there a way to version all of them from just one projects that has GitVersionTask nuget reference? I really don't want to add GitVersionTask to all the projects as it would be total hell.

Let's say the project referencing GitVersionTask is MT.Versioner and every other project references this MT.Versioner. I successfully versioned this MT.Versioner dll. However when I reference MT.Versioner in other projects it doesn't version them. So I tried to read though your docs and found msbuild properties UpdateAssemblyInfo, GenerateAssemblyFileVersionAttribute, GenerateAssemblyInformationalVersionAttribute and GenerateAssemblyVersionAttribute, tried to add them to that MT.Versioner.csproj, but didn't make any difference. Is there a way to do this requirement so that I have only one project referencing nuget GitVersionTask?

@arturcic

@jakubsuchybio I think you can have a GeneralAssemblyInfo or similar that is referenced in all the projects, and you can set the version for GeneralAssemblyInfo once

Jakub Suchy

@jakubsuchybio

@arturcic Yeah I though about something like that, but don't know how to do that. Because when I create GeneralAssemblyInfo and link it to every other project, then when the GitVersioner versions that file it will be flagged as changed by VCS. So It would need to be partial and make GitVersioner create GeneralAssemblyInfo.Compiled.g which would complete that GeneralAssemblyInfo, but I don't know if linking just GeneralAssemblyInfo.cs would be enought to version other projects :/

henrik eriksson

@henrik_GJ_Esson_twitter

Would you add that GeneralAssemblyInfo to git Ignore? Or have a default one added to the repo, to be able to build without having it generated first?

Using gitversion 5.0.1. No concerns from our master branch, using trunk based development. But when on a release branch, gitversion fails

Reported issue here: GitTools/GitVersion#1815

Gary Ewan Park

@gep13

@/all I have just converted the gittools user on NuGet.org into an Organisation, which will allow us to better administer the various GitVersion packages on NuGet.org. This should be a completeley transparent operation, but if you notice any problems, please let me know.

@asbjornu can you let me know your NuGet.org Username, and I will get you added to the Organisation.

Should I also add anyone else into the organisation?

@gep13 I didn't do much on GitVersion lately, but if you want you can add me

:wave:

I wanted to use GitVersion in GitHub Actions and was naively using Ubuntu to build my .net core application in GitHub Actions, and realized that I needed to install it for Ubuntu

So I started making a GitHub Action that would install GitVersion so I could then use it in further GitHub Actions

I was encouraged by the 5.1.1 release: https://github.com/GitTools/GitVersion/releases/tag/5.1.1

because it was the first to have artifacts for each OS

I then realized that GitVersion is included by default with Windows based GitHub Actions

https://help.github.com/en/github/automating-your-workflow-with-github-actions/software-in-virtual-environments-for-github-actions#windows-server-2019

I still wanted what I wanted when I wanted it, so I created a GitHub Action for mac and linux that would install GitVersion 5.1.1

https://github.com/StanleyGoldman/setup-gitversion

It was really just me wanting to know how to make a GitHub Action at that point

Stanley Goldman

@StanleyGoldman

all that said, I'm going to open the proper pull requests, to get GitVersion v5.1.1 included by default for linux and mac GitHub Actions

Mattias Karlsson

@devlead

this is what makes it available to windows GitHub Actions

this is the issue i opened to get it added to mac/linux

@arturcic

@StanleyGoldman have you considered to install the gitversion global tool instead? As .net ask is already installed on those images and can run the tool. Basically you could have something similar to https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=gittools.usegitversion

.net SDK

Stanley Goldman

@StanleyGoldman

yea, i definitely saw that

There are so many ways to use GitVersion, which is definitely great

i just always felt partial to using it on the command line
