does not allow
- specify both a commit hash and e.g. a branch (as image digests do:
$IMAGE_URL:mytag@sha256:cafebabe..)
- Note importantly: tools such as
renovate provide a way to upgrade digests given mytag
- differentiating between a tag or a branch (and a non-full commit)
To permit this I propose to extend this syntax in a somewhat backwards compatible way:
https://github.com/user/repo.git##tag=mytag,branch=main,commit=cafebab,source=/dir
tag and branch cannot be used togethercommit can be a short commit hash instead of a full one- note the leading
/ for source: to keep with uniformity with other csv args
## usage (instead of just #) may already exist in the wild (but "unlikely" combined with csv)renovate can work with branch or tag (git tags are as mutable as branches) and commit, as with images
