Subject: RCS keyword expansion
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2007 15:47:29 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0710111542420.23849@ds9.cixit.se> (raw)
Hi!
I've looked and looked, but cannot figure out how to do RCS/CVS style
keyword expansion with Git. The FAQ on the Wiki is quite cryptic on the
subject, and my googling skills fail short.
I mainly want to have $Date$ expand in RCS/CVS manner, i.e to when the
file was last changed. Possibly even have an $Id$ that gives me
something useful (name and commit hash, perhaps?). Is it possible to do
this? Can it be done through git-cvsserver?
I currently have my personal website in CVS and am using $Date$ to
include a datestamp on the pages. I am considering converting the
repository to Git, but only after I can get $Date$ expansion to work.
I am considering having the website host believe it still is a cvs
repository by using git-cvsserver, thus my question about expanding
$Date$ through it.
