Bash/Shell Script Function to Verify Git Tag or Commit Exists and Has Been Pushed to Remote Repository

I wanted to get this question out there to see if I'm doing this right. The following script works except for checking to see if the commit has been pushed to a remote repo which I can't find the right command for:

#!/bin/bash
set -e  # fail on first error    
verify_git_ref() {
        log "Verifying git tag or commit: \"$1\" ...."
        if git show-ref --tags --quiet --verify -- "refs/tags/$1"
        then
            log_success "Git tag \"$1\" verified...."
            GIT_TAG_OR_REF=$1
            return 0
        elif git rev-list $1>/dev/null 2>&1
        then
            log_success "Git commit \"$1\" verified...."
            GIT_TAG_OR_REF=$1
            return 0
        else
            log_error "\"$1\" is not a valid tag or commit, you must use a valid tag or commit in order for this script to continue"
         开发者_运维知识库   return 1
        fi
    }

Checking whether a remote has a given tag is pretty simple - you should just need to parse the output of git ls-remote --tags to see if it contains your tag.

Checking if a given commit is there is a little trickier. Everything is ref-based. Do you know what ref it should be reachable from? If you do, you should probably just fetch that ref and check locally if the commit is an ancestor of it. That is, fetch master from origin and see if the commit's on origin/master.

You could also try using git push -n to do a dry run of pushing the commit to that branch, and see what happens - if it's a no-op, the commit's already on the branch.

If you don't know what branch it should be on... you'll probably just have to fetch and check them all.

I got this to work - what do you think?

verify_git_ref() {
    log "Verifying git tag or commit: \"$1\" ...."
    if git branch -r --contains $(git rev-parse $1) | grep origin>/dev/null 2>&1
    then
        log_success "Git tag or commit \"$1\" verified...."
        GIT_TAG_OR_REF=$1
        return 0
    else
        log_error "\"$1\" is not a valid tag or commit that has been pushed, you must use a valid tag or commit in order for this script to continue"
        return 1
    fi
