The Gradle Git‑Version plugin by Palantir provides automated versioning by integrating Git metadata into the build process. It uses git describe --tags --always --first-parent logic to generate a dynamic version string—adding a .dirty suffix when the working directory has uncommitted changes—so that versioning directly reflects the Git history.
Features
- Generates version strings based on Git tags and commit history
- Mimics git describe --tags --always --first-parent behavior
- Appends .dirty when repository contains uncommitted changes
- Automatically injects version logic into the Gradle project
- Useful for reproducible builds and CI version tracking
- Actively maintained with latest release version 4.0.0 (June 27, 2025)
