I just discovered that the tarball no longer contains the version in
the tarball "grass" subdir (expected "grass-8.4.0"):
tar tvfz ~/grass-8.4.0.tar.gz  | head

[...]
Why is that? Is it a feature?
It breaks e.g. the (Fedora) RPM packaging procedure...

That tarball used for the Debian package from 
https://grass.osgeo.org/grass84/source/ includes the version in the toplevel 
directory:

$ tar tavf ../grass-8.4.0.tar.gz | head -1
drwxrwxr-x root/root         0 2024-07-27 13:27 grass-8.4.0/

The tarball from https://grass.osgeo.org/grass84/source/ is not the same as the one 
on Github, it also does not contain the "include/VERSION_GIT” file.

That's obvious.

Why that breaks the RPM packaging procedure is not, as it uses the tarballs from grass.osgeo.org too:
