How to get the last commit ID of a remote repo usi

问题:

I want to get the last commit ID of the remote git repo.

The command git rev-parse HEAD works for a locally-cloned git repo, but I want to get it from the original GIT repo by a CURL command or so.

Eg: I want to get the last commit ID of the git URL https://git.appfactorypreview.wso2.com/history/apiapp.git/.

How?

回答1:

try this command

git log --format="%H" -n 1

回答2:

I think what you want is this:

git ls-remote $URL HEAD

If HEAD doesn't exist in the remote repository, then you likely want:

git ls-remote $URL refs/heads/master

Note that in the first instance, HEAD is going to point to the default branch to checkout in the repository. You need to be sure that's the branch you want, or just use the second form and specify the one you want (replace refs/heads/master with the name of the branch you want: refs/heads/BRANCH_NAME.

You can use git ls-remote for this. Because I get a 'Unauthorized access for repository apiapp.git' I use as example torvalds linux-repo.

$ git ls-remote --heads git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git

Another way, without using git log:

git rev-parse HEAD

回答5:

my answer would not help the OP because he's not on github, but I think I would mention it anyway because it uses curl, or wget, as the OP requested.

wget -qO- http://api.github.com/repos/Ghini/ghini.desktop/commits/ghini-1.0

Ghini is my repo, ghini.desktop is my repository, ghini-1.0 is the branch I'm interested in. Replace them to fit your case.

the JSON answer is a dictionary, and the OP was interested in its sha field, but it contains a lot more information.
