GitInfo
A transparent MSBuild and .NET package that provides Git and Semantic Versioning information for C#, F#, and VB projects.
What is GitInfo?
GitInfo is a NuGet package for .NET developers that automatically injects Git repository information and semantic versioning into MSBuild projects. It provides compile-time constants and build properties for details like commit hash, branch name, and version numbers, eliminating the need for external CI scripts to generate versioning metadata.
.NET developers using C#, F#, or VB who want to automate versioning and embed Git information directly into their assemblies without relying on custom build tasks or CI-specific tooling.
GitInfo offers a completely transparent, no-compiled-code approach that integrates seamlessly with MSBuild and generates easy-to-use constants, giving developers full control over versioning with minimal configuration and no external dependencies.
