Cypress Run Git Information
Internally, cypress uses https://github.com/cypress-io/commit-info npm package for fetching git information.
In order to to obtain git data, .git folder should be available during execution of your cypress tests (on CI machines). The package uses Git commands to get each property, like git show -s --pretty=%B, see src/git-api.js. 
When git information is not available from .git folder. you can provide fallback  environment variables:
1
COMMIT_INFO_BRANCH: branch
2
COMMIT_INFO_MESSAGE: commit message
3
COMMIT_INFO_EMAIL: commit author email
4
COMMIT_INFO_AUTHOR: commit author name
5
COMMIT_INFO_SHA: commit info sha
6
COMMIT_INFO_TIMESTAMP: commit timestamp
7
COMMIT_INFO_REMOTE: remote origin
Copied!
Please note: If no git information is available - either from.git folder or from environment variables, no information or default placeholder data will be shown 
Please note: git information is required for Bitbucket, GitHub, Gitlab and other SVC providers
