At Kiwi.com what we do is we add tons of labels when building the images:

    --label build-date=`date -Iseconds`
    --label vcs-url=$CI_PROJECT_URL
    --label version=git-$CI_COMMIT_SHA
    --label com.kiwi.gitlab.ci.builder=$GITLAB_USER_EMAIL
    --label com.kiwi.gitlab.ci.pipeline=$CI_PROJECT_URL/pipelines/$CI_PIPELINE_ID
    --label com.kiwi.gitlab.ci.ref=$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME
    --label com.kiwi.gitlab.ci.build=$CI_PROJECT_URL/builds/$CI_JOB_ID

Also, all images that get to prod are commit hash tagged, but for development we also tag them with the branch name:

    --tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
    --tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_REF_SLUG
