To store git commit informations into a json file

# git-app-version -o <output-file-without-extension> -f <file-format> <my-git-repository>
git-app-version -o version -f json

output :

written to :
<my-git-repository>/version.json

This will generate a version.json file in the current directory (if this directory is a git repository).

You can generate several format at once :

git-app-version -o version -f json -f yml -f xml -f ini -f sh

Metadata : adding custom fields

You can add custom metadata fields with the --meta / -m option (can be used several times) :

git-app-version -m foo=bar -m custom_key=custom_value

output :
