LabVIEW Code Compare Tool for Git: Display git tag (if it exists) in the Commit Details #15

Open RobustoSystems opened 2 weeks ago

RobustoSystems commented 2 weeks ago

First of all, thanks very much for creating and making freely available the LabVIEW Code Compare Tool for Git, which is an excellent and extremely useful tool! I heard of it after watching the YouTube recording of the GLA Summit 2024 presentation: https://youtu.be/68CuI1XTFeE?si=pmxcu8Ij0BiGC-OQ.

My colleague and I have started actively using the tool as part of our workflow. Earlier today (28 August 2024) we were inspecting the differences between two branches that we were about to merge (and that we successfully merged later in the day).

The latest commit on one of the branches contained a git tag whose string value was "Ready_To_Merge". We could see this tag in Windows PowerShell when executing the "git log -1" command to display the latest commit details.

It would be useful if the tag was displayed in the "Commit Details" box, as prototyped in the screenshot below.

Thank you Petru Tarabuta for trying out the Code Compare Tool and for the suggestion. Yes, it could be useful to know the Tag details (if any available) for a commit.

We will consider this request in our next version and share more details once we have the updates ready.
