Specify a custom git tag with sbt-release

Is it possible to specify a git scheme for git tag names with sbt-release?

The tag commit message and comment can be specified. Per the README:

releaseTagComment := s"Releasing ${(version in ThisBuild).value}", releaseCommitMessage := s"Setting version to ${(version in ThisBuild).value}",

But I've been unable to find a way to change the default for the actual tag text, which is set to s"v${releaseVersion}".

I'd like to specify the project name in the tag string, e.g., "myproject-v0.1.1"

To clarify, by the "tag string", I mean the string you see in e.g., git tag -l

We have multiple projects in the same git repository, and they have similar version numbers, so tags like "v0.1.0" are ambiguous.

You can use the custom tag based on your requirement. Here is the approach which I have followed.

Steps

  1. Add the below-given content in build.sbt file. Here if the branch is master then I am using the semantic versioning like: 1.0.1 but if the branch name is other than master then I am using the custom tag(branch-name + git-commitid + timestamp).
import scala.sys.process.Process

lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(JavaAppPackaging)

name := "your-project-name"
scalaVersion := "2.12.11"

val branch = Process("git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD").lineStream.head
version := {
  branch match {
    case "master" => (version in ThisBuild).value
    case _ => {
      val commit = Process("git rev-parse HEAD").lineStream.head
      val time = Process("git log -1 --format=%ct").lineStream.head
      branch +"-"+ commit +"-"+ time
    }
  }
}
  1. Create a version.sbt file in your project's root directory and add version in ThisBuild := "1.0.1-SNAPSHOT".
  2. Finally you can use sbt-release or any other plugins to release/publish the artifacts in the repository.

there's an sbt-release configuration value releaseTagName which you can modify to customize how release tag is generated. This is working for me:

lazy val root = (project in file(".")).
  settings(
    .... other settings ....
    releaseTagName := s"version-${if (releaseUseGlobalVersion.value) (version in ThisBuild).value else version.value}",
    ....
    )

If everything else fails you can also customize release steps, and write your own tagRelease step.
