Subject: JAL-3225 Using Gradle Git-Version plugin to set gitHash and gitBranch
X-Git-Tag: Develop-2_11_2_0-d20201215~24^2~49
X-Git-Url: http://source.jalview.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d59675fab74acfcb19063b7f0081cb22ef3e4d5e;p=jalview.git

JAL-3225 Using Gradle Git-Version plugin to set gitHash and gitBranch

Using Gradle Git-Version instead of exec to run git directly allows
buildship to successfully import the project into eclipse without a
command line git installed.  Essential for development within Eclipse in
Windows without having to install either gradle or git as command line
tools.
