Subject: meaning of "-g" in git-describe output
Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 23:20:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201003172320.45058.markus.heidelberg@web.de> (raw)
Hello,
what is the meaning of the character 'g' in output like v1.0.4-14-g2414721 ?
Is it simply the first letter, which isn't used in hexadecimal numbers
or has it a deeper sense?
Markus
