|
vcs.ref.head.revision |
string | The revision, literally revised version, The revision most often refers to a commit object in Git, or a revision number in SVN. [2] | 9d59409acf479dfa0df1aa568182e43e43df8bbe28d60fcf2bc52e30068802cc; main; 123; HEAD |

vcs.repository.url.full |
string | The URL of the repository providing the complete address in order to locate and identify the repository. | https://github.com/opentelemetry/open-telemetry-collector-contrib; https://gitlab.com/my-org/my-project/my-projects-project/repo |

string | The type of revision comparison. | ahead; behind |
|
[1] vcs.ref.base.revision: The revision can be a full hash value (see glossary),
of the recorded change to a ref within a repository pointing to a
commit commit object. It does
not necessarily have to be a hash; it can simply define a
revision number
which is an integer that is monotonically increasing. In cases where
it is identical to the ref.base.name, it SHOULD still be included. It is
up to the implementer to decide which value to set as the revision
based on the VCS system and situational context.
[2] vcs.ref.head.revision: The revision can be a full hash value (see glossary),
of the recorded change to a ref within a repository pointing to a
commit commit object. It does
not necessarily have to be a hash; it can simply define a
revision number
which is an integer that is monotonically increasing. In cases where
it is identical to the ref.head.name, it SHOULD still be included. It is
up to the implementer to decide which value to set as the revision
based on the VCS system and situational context.
vcs.change.state has the following list of well-known values. If one of them applies, then the respective value MUST be used; otherwise, a custom value MAY be used.
| Value | Description | Stability |
|---|---|---|
closed |
Closed means the merge request has been closed without merging. This can happen for various reasons, such as the changes being deemed unnecessary, the issue being resolved in another way, or the author deciding to withdraw the request. | |
merged |
Merged indicates that the change has been successfully integrated into the target codebase. | |
open |
Open means the change is currently active and under review. It hasn't been merged into the target branch yet, and it's still possible to make changes or add comments. | |
wip |
WIP (work-in-progress, draft) means the change is still in progress and not yet ready for a full review. It might still undergo significant changes. | |
vcs.line_change.type has the following list of well-known values. If one of them applies, then the respective value MUST be used; otherwise, a custom value MAY be used.
