.NET Revision Task for MSBuild

Injects the current VCS revision of a working directory in a custom format into a .NET assembly build or just displays it.

.NET Revision Task is a custom MSBuild task that integrates the current Git or SVN revision info of a working directory into the build to embed it in applications. This works for .NET solutions for .NET Core/Standard using the new .csproj structure, and other .NET projects written in C# and VB.NET using the regular Visual Studio project structure.

Currently the following VCS (version control system) are supported:

  • Git
  • Subversion

More systems can easily be added in the code.

Compatibility: .NET Version 4.6 or newer .NET Standard Version 1.6 or newer Windows 10 Windows 8 Windows 7 64 bit

This tool is based on the older program .NET Revision Tool and integrates its features into MSBuild.
