## The GitInfo Object

|
The `GitInfo` object contains the following fields:
|
|
|
|
|

|
: abbreviated commit hash, e.g. `866cbcc`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AuthorName
|
|
|
|
: author name, respecting `.mailmap`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AuthorEmail
|
|
|
|
: author email address, respecting `.mailmap`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AuthorDate
|
|

|
: the author date
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hash

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Performance Considerations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Git integrations should be fairly performant, but it does add some time to the build, which depends somewhat on the Git history size.
