Extract version number from git source

[cblt2l]

I'm building from git and would like to extract the revision/version number from the source. Does anyone know where I can find this? grep'ing through the source yielded nothing.

I know it has to be in there somewhere. If I go to Help -> About FreeCAD it lists the version and revision number.

Look for the Version.h file in ./src/Build. This file is generated when running cmake.

When running cmake we execute the Python script SubWCRef.py. For a git repository the Python class GitControl generates the build number by counting the number of commits in a branch because git doesn't offer this but gives only a hash value. Major and minor version number are taken from the file Version.h.in.

Thanks guys. I knew it had to be in there somewhere.

If you want the exact Version you can clone the git repo and check the respective commit out

Code: Select all

git clone git://free-cad.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/free-cad/free-cad
git checkout `git log origin/master --oneline --reverse --format=format:%H |head -n 1370 |tail -n 1`

Do you really want the source code for an old out of date version of FreeCAD?

For the current git repo master branch code

Code: Select all

git clone git://free-cad.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/free-cad/free-cad freecad

follow the instructions here

Thanks guys. Is the git server down?
When I do
>> git clone git://free-cad.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/free-cad/free-cad freecad

I get
free-cad.git.sourceforge.net[0: 216.34.181.91]: errno=Connection timed out
fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection timed out)

Can someone please give it a try? However, I the server responds to ping.

I just did 5 minutes ago without trouble. I suggest you try again, maybe the problem was temporary.

Still not working for me. Same error code.
