        Hi,
okay, that sounds better. Let him use just one of those, better might
be -DVERSION_SUBSTRING="gitXXXXX", which will generate "X.Y.ZgitXXXXX".

I understand that it's a pita to hunt for "Post-release version bump"
commits, but it also makes sense to bump the version after release,
thus it's clear that this version is not 'the previous version'. Or I
just got use to this approach during the years. Each approach has its
pros and cons.
        Thanks and bye,
        Milan
