Overlaying application version on top of your icon

This technical article explains a method for iOS developers to automatically overlay version information (version number, git branch name, and short commit hash) onto their application's icon. It details using command-line tools like PlistBuddy and git rev-parse to extract data, ImageMagick to composite the text onto the icon image, and provides a complete script to integrate the process into an Xcode build phase.
