How do i find a the version of which a github issue is fixed and released

Question

For Example, i wanted to know which k8 version has the fix for https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/23265/commits

From the commit history it shows that the change has been merged to 'master'

Answer 1

git describe

git describe is intended for questions like yours.

• which tag is closest to the commit? (git describe <sha>)
• which tag contains commit? (git describe <sha> --contains)
• which branch or annotated tag is closest to the commit? (git describe <sha>--all)

So, which k8 version has the fix for PR 23265 ?

Try these steps:

1. Copy to the clipboard SHA1 of the only commit of PR 23265: 2d064083001a7a7f7dfc8a5f8f2fc50582449bf6
2. Clone k8s source: git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/
3. cd kubernetes
4. Get the earliest annotated tag that contains commit:

git describe 2d064083001a7a7f7dfc8a5f8f2fc50582449bf6 --contains
v1.4.0-alpha.3~307^2

Voila, at least v1.4.0-alpha.3 contains PR 23265

Answer 2

Go to the commit page https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/23265/commits/2d064083001a7a7f7dfc8a5f8f2fc50582449bf6

It's right there in light grey v1.4.0-alpha.3. You can see all the tags from all the versions the commit is in.
