## go git revision
This project contains an example of how to embed a git revision into your go binaries.
This is useful for debugging. Try it out in your own go projects!
### Why and how
This embeds the current git commit hash into your go binary as a static string, and prints it upon startup, so that at any time in the future you can relate the binary or its output to a specific git revision.
### To build
```
make
```
### To run
```
$ make run
Starting up with git revision da159998f0ce
```
Edit or add a file to the directory then,
```
$ touch newfile
$ make run
Starting up with git revision da159998f0ce-dirty
```
