How to find the version of Redis

Question

I am on my ubuntu 12.04 (exact32) box where Redis was installed, but I cannot find out the version of Redis. How can I solve this problem?

It was installed using the redisio cookbook .

• If you want to find the server version:

  $ redis-server -v 

  For example, on my system, I get this result:

   Redis server v=2.8.4 sha=00000000:0 malloc=libc bits=64 build=92637893332b8579 

• If you want to get the client version:

   $ redis-cli -v 

• If you want to know the server version, from the client:

   > INFO 

and the first line is the version of the Redis server.
