lein-git-version

:plugins [[shmish111/lein-git-version "1.0.13"]]

This auto-generates a version.clj file with git information for inclusion in your artifacts.

If your project is not using the scheme above, you can change the folder for the version.clj file by setting :git-version-path in your project.clj file and the version namespace by setting :git-version-root-ns. Example:
:git-version-path "src/clj/my-project"
:git-version-root-ns "my-project"

Usage

Put [shmish111/lein-git-version "1.0.13"] into the :plugins vector of your project.clj.

Example:

$ lein new nifty
Generating a project called nifty based on the 'default' template.
The default template is intended for library projects, not applications.
To see other templates (app, plugin, etc), try `lein help new`.
$ cd nifty
$ vim project.clj
$ cat project.clj
(defproject nifty "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"
