build_info API returns Unknown

[Anant Patil]

When I query build_info API, it returns Unknown as the API and Engine revision.

I see following:

{
  "engine": {
    "revision": "unknown"
  },
  "api": {
    "revision": "unknown"
  }
}

I think this is expected - the revision functionality is optional, for deployers who want to tag their deployments with specific stuff via the heat config file:

[revision]

#
# Options defined in heat.common.config
#

# Heat build revision. If you would prefer to manage your
# build revision separately, you can move this section to a
# different file and add it as another config option. (string
# value)
#heat_revision=unknown

If you set the heat_revision to something other than "unknown" then I believe your problem will be solved.
