Summary	0001382: Add git repository detection code
Description	It can be useful to auto-detect what git repository Composr is from, e.g. to customise a config file when switching between branches. We can add a new function to do it, but it must be in anything that loads the config file.
Additional Information	/** * Find the git branch name. * * @return ?ID_TEXT Branch name (NULL: not in git) */ function git_repos() { $path=dirname(__FILE__).'/.git/HEAD'; if (!is_file($path)) return ''; $lines=file($path); $parts=explode('/',$lines[0]); return trim(end($parts)); }
Tags	No tags attached.
