How can I get the latest tag name in current branch in Git?
To get the most recent tag (example output afterwards): git describe –tags –abbrev=0 # 0.1.0-dev To get the most recent tag, with the number of additional commits on top of the tagged object & more: git describe –tags # 0.1.0-dev-93-g1416689 To get the most recent annotated tag: git describe –abbrev=0
