How do I get the hash for the current commit in Git?

How do I get the hash of the current commit in Git?

Solution

  • To turn any extended object reference into a hash, use git-rev-parse:

    git rev-parse HEAD

    or

    git rev-parse --verify HEAD

    To retrieve the short hash:

    git rev-parse --short HEAD

    To turn references (e.g. branches and tags) into hashes, use git show-ref and git for-each-ref.
