gitstatus

This package allows to include information about a git-repository into a document.

Introduction

If your LaTeX-document is version-controlled with git, you might encounter situations, where you want to include some information of your git-repository into your LaTeX-document - e.g. to keep track on who gave you feedback on which version of your document.

Options

  • gitdir - custom git dir (can be relative), (default is ".git/", meaning your LaTeX document is in the top level of your repo)
  • watermark - watermark with branch + hash on top of page (default: don't use watermark)
  • nowatermark - same as watermark=false
  • novariables - disable creation of variables (default: false)

Variables

Apart from the option to add a watermark at the top of the page that mentions the current commit hash and branch-name, the package also provides variables with the same information for individual use. These variables are:

  • \gitdir
  • \gitcommit
  • \gitbranch
