Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-1079:
--------------------------------------------
I can't get git describe to work on any of my well used repos. I'm not really
concerned about it though as I'd rather just keep the bit of the sha and just
make it eye parse-able.
> Fix local version append
> ------------------------

> Key: COUCHDB-1079
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1079
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Paul Joseph Davis
>
> The local version info is awesome to be able to track down exactly what
> commit someone has built locally with, but the way that info is appended
> caused some confusion:
> 1.2.0ac052866-git
> I tried a handful of git sha's from that info before I broke down and read
> the bootstrap and acinclude.m4.in sources to figure out what was going on. It
> turns out, the version info is:
> 1 (Major) 2 (Minor) 0 (Revision) a (Alpha) (c052866-git) (Local)
> As you might guess, figuring out why Git was telling me that revisions
> 0ac052886 and ac052886 was mildly irritating. I would propose we just add a
> dot to separate the local part as in:
> 1.2.0a.c052886-git
> I'd commit this but I figured I should go ahead and see if anyone has any
> objections first.
