Command to get version of func CLI

[datho7561]

How do I get information on the version of the func CLI that I'm using? func version doesn't report the client version, instead it reports what I think is the Knative function version on the cluster? func version -v reports the commit, which is helpful, but then I have to search the repo to figure out which release that corresponds to.

@datho7561 You might want to give func environment a shot. This gives you quite some information and then some.

However, your premise of func version returning the Knative version is incorrect:

Yes, func version is reporting the version of the CLI that you're running. Functions doesn't require anything installed in the cluster other than Knative (Serving and Eventing).

We aren't (yet) tagging the CLI releases regularly, so the version is how far ahead the CLI you're running is from the last tagged version. In your first case, you're running the Functions CLI which is 99 commits ahead of the last tagged release, 0.38.0, which is commit gcd0bc6ae.

I hope that helps; we are actively working on improving our release process 👍🏻

I'm sorry, I think I misunderstand something. When I run func version with version 1.12.0 it reports the version as v0.38.0-99-gcd0bc6ae. Is there a way to get func version to report 1.12.0?
