Hi
I am versioning my python package using git tags and the python-versioneer package.
Basically versioneer gets the version number from git tags using the command "git describe --tags --dirty --always --long --match 'tag_prefix*'". I do not apply a tag prefix, hence tag_prefix=''.
Now to the problem. My build breaks because the command above returns tags like this "refs/tags/2.12.2" which contains invalid characters. Actually, it seems that executing the command above reconfigured the way git describe behaves.
because, before running the above command "git describe --tags --dirty" returned
2.12.2-17-gd8e62f9
After, "git describe --tags --dirty" returns
warning: tag 'refs/tags/2.12.2' is really '2.12.2' here refs/tags/2.12.2-17-gd8e62f9
Is it so that "git describe --tags --dirty --always --long --match 'tag_prefix*'" changes the way git describe behave or am I missing something? If it does, how can I reset it?
Thanks Per
