Git与最新版本同步

Question

I have several releases with different tag names (eg v1.0, v1.0.5 and v2.4 etc). I only publish a release when my project is at a stable condition.

On a separate machine, I want to pull the latest version that is 'stable', that is to say, the latest release that has been made.

Is there a way to achieve this through Git?

Answer 1

Make sure you are using tag objects ( git tag -m ), then git fetch to sync the repos, then do git for-each-ref --sort=taggerdate --format '%(refname:short)' refs/tags | tail -1 git for-each-ref --sort=taggerdate --format '%(refname:short)' refs/tags | tail -1 to get the most recent tag and check that out.

Answer 2

If your tags are named consistently with version numbers as your example that v1.0 < v1.0.5 < v2.4 , you can just get the last line from git tag as the latest.

So the command should be as follows, assuming the remote reference name is origin

git fetch --tags origin
git checkout $(git tag | tail -1)

To make it one line command.

git fetch --tags origin && git checkout $(git tag | tail -1)
