Git Refs

Build Status Dependency Status devDependency Status

JavaScript implementation to get the git commit hashes for different references.

  • current branch (current)
  • local branches (heads)
  • remote branches (remotes)
  • tags (tags)

Tags aren't currently implemented, because they require being able to read the tag commit object. The other references just require reading the file contents.

Usage

npm install @sinet/git-refs --save

Example

const gitRefs = require( '@sinet/git-refs' );

gitRefs( '/path/to/.git', function ( error, refs ) {
	if ( error ) {
		return console.log( error );
	}

	console.log( "refs.current.head:", refs.current.head );
	console.log( refs );
} );
