"Available constants" are undocumented.

[pklapperich]

Not all of the available constants are immediately obvious. It would be nice if they were documented similar to the available customizations.

• $(GitRepositoryUrl)
  • The URL of the default git-remote. Same as git remote get-url origin
• $(GitBranch)
  • The name of the currently checked out branch
• $(GitCommit)
  • first 7-char of git commit hash, similar to what's shown by git describe
• $(GitCommitDate)
  • date of the commit
• $(GitCommits)
  • number of commits since the last BaseVersion change. This is 0 if the BaseVersion was changed in this commit.
• $(GitTag)
  • the tag if the current commit is tagged. If the current commit is not tagged, it's -{added_commits}-g$(GitCommit) where {added_commits} is the commits added since the last tag. This is similar to the output of git describe --tags, except no tag name is included unless the current commit is tagged.
• $(GitBaseTag)
  • Most recent Git Tag (in an ancestor commit) matched by the GitTagRegex
• $(GitBaseVersionMajor)
  • Major version parsed from the GitBaseVersionRegex
• $(GitBaseVersionMinor)
  • Minor version parsed from the GitBaseVersionRegex
• $(GitBaseVersionPatch)
  • Patch version parsed from the GitBaseVersionRegex
• $(GitSemVerMajor)
  • Same as GitBaseVersionMajor
• $(GitSemVerMinor)
  • Same as GitBaseVersionMinor
• $(GitSemVerPatch)
  • Summation of GitBaseVersionPatch and GitCommits. This is useful for automatically increasing the Patch value whenever commits are made without the need to manually edit the Version File or add a new tag.
• $(GitSemVerLabel)
  • The label parsed from the GitBaseVersionRegex
• $(GitSemVerDashLabel)
  • Same as GitSemVerLabel, but preceded by a dash. This is useful for reducing conditional statements when the label is optional
• $(GitSemVerSource)
  • Indicates whether the version came from the Version File or a parsing a Tag
• $(GitIsDirty)
  • 1 if working directory was dirty during build time, 0 if working directory was clean
