How to fetch git commit info in `mix.exs` when on Gigalixir

I am using Gigalixir to deploy our Phoenix app, it’s really easy and makes life better.

For my app I want to add some info from current commit like sha of the commit and the time of the commit.

I used git show -s --format=%h and git log -1 --date=raw --format=%cd and all I got is fatal: bad object HEAD.

I don’t know what Gigalixir does when deploying and what I can do with git command.
Do you guys have any ideas?

Not a solution for the given problem, but probably an alternative.
If all you want is the commit SHA.
Nearly every CI system gives you access to the commit SHA via an environment variable.
It seems to also be true for Gigalixir → SOURCE_VERSION

System.get_env("SOURCE_VERSION")

Take with caution. I don’t use Gigaelixir.
