GIT-VERSION(1)                    Git Manual                    GIT-VERSION(1)

NAME
       git-version - Display version information about Git

SYNOPSIS
       git version [--build-options]


DESCRIPTION
       With no options given, the version of git is printed on the standard
       output.

       Note that git --version is identical to git version because the former
       is internally converted into the latter.

OPTIONS
       --build-options
           Include additional information about how git was built for
           diagnostic purposes.

           The libraries used to implement the SHA-1 and SHA-256 algorithms
           are displayed in the form SHA-1: <option> and SHA-256: <option>.
           Note that the SHA-1 options SHA1_APPLE, SHA1_OPENSSL, and SHA1_BLK
           do not use a collision detection algorithm and thus may be
           vulnerable to known SHA-1 collision attacks. When a faster SHA-1
           implementation without collision detection is used for only
           non-cryptographic purposes, the algorithm is displayed in the form
           non-collision-detecting-SHA-1: <option>.
