If the git version number consists of less than three period
separated numbers, then the windows resource file compilation
issues a syntax error:
$ touch git.rc
$ make V=1 git.res
GIT_VERSION = 1.9.rc0
windres -O coff \
-DMAJOR=1 -DMINOR=9 -DPATCH=rc0 \
-DGIT_VERSION="\\\"1.9.rc0\\\"" git.rc -o git.res
C:\msysgit\msysgit\mingw\bin\windres.exe: git.rc:2: syntax error
make: *** [git.res] Error 1
$
[Note that -DPATCH=rc0]
In order to fix the syntax error, we replace any rcX with zero and
include some additional 'zero' padding to the version number list.

Hi Junio,
This patch is marked RFC because, as I was just about to send this
email, I realized it wouldn't always work:
$ touch git.rc
$ make V=1 GIT_VERSION=1.9.dirty git.res
windres -O coff \
-DMAJOR=1 -DMINOR=9 -DPATCH=dirty \
-DGIT_VERSION="\\\"1.9.dirty\\\"" git.rc -o git.res
C:\msysgit\msysgit\mingw\bin\windres.exe: git.rc:2: syntax error
make: *** [git.res] Error 1
$
:-D
I suspect it would be easier to change GIT-VERSION-GEN to also set, say,
GIT_VERSION_MAJOR, GIT_VERSION_MINOR and GIT_VERSION_PATCH ...
ATB,
Ramsay Jones
