Hi all,

So as you may know, GitHub and GitLab allow you to download all files
from a branch as a compressed archive, using your web browser. For a
while, this is how we've deployed the river control system software at
Wimborne Model Town, as the system hasn't had internet access,
historically speaking.

As we're now almost ready for some new deployments, it'd be useful to
know exactly what revision of code the pis contain, so we can slowly
bring things up to date. I was wondering if anyone know whether GitLab's
file downloads contain any kind of git signature/watermark to show you
what commit you downloaded, or if there's a way to enable this.
According to Terry, Microsoft SourceSafe (?) did this, so I'm sure
there's a way of achieving this with git too, but I have been unable to
find it.

Any ideas? :)
