CCS: Getting git SHA-1 into CCS compiled application

Hi,

Im wondering if there is any way to grab the current git SHA-1 from CCS in order to use the string in an embedded application. Are there some git environment variables or TI libraries I can use to extract this info? Thanks

Basically I would like to use the HEAD SHA-1 that you can see in CCS's Properties->Git in my app.

I don't see any build variables that contain this value. Maybe you could write a script that obtained the value from git and then write it into a #define or global variable in a .h file that was then included in your build. That script could run as a pre-build step during the CCS build.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have done this and its working. It's too bad that CCS has env vars for git branches etc but not one for the HEAD SHA-1.
