Subject: how to determine version of binary
Date: Sat, 05 May 2012 02:12:44 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <jo2jtd$m6c$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)
Scenario: I detect a binary file that is 'dirty'. I don't know how it
got there. However, I know it came from a git repo. So I calculate the
sha1 of the binary. What is the git command to determine which commit
that binary version first appeared in? And the last commit that binary
appeared in?
Why: we have people ftp'ing binaries around. I want to see the commit
message and source change of that commit to see what the binary version is.
v/r,
neal
