Context:
I have a CodePipeline set up that uses CodeCommit and CodeBuild as its source and build phases.
My build includes a plugin (com.zoltu.git-versioning) that uses the Git commit history to dynamically create a build version number.
Issue:
This fails on the AWS pipeline because it cannot find any Git information in the source used to perform the build.
Clearly the action used to checkout the source uses an export which omits the Git metadata and history.
Question:
How do I configure CodeCommit or CodePipeline to do a proper git clone? I've looked in the settings for both these components (as well as CodeBuild) and cannot find any configuration to set the command used by the checkout action.
Has anyone got CodePipeline builds working with a checkout containing full Git metadata?
