The gitpkgv class is very helpful when you want packages to have a consistent incremental version number, when build machines cannot talk to eachother (ruling out using PRSERVER for example) other than through repositories.

However, this small gem is present in meta-oe and not in the core. I now have several layers that pull in all of meta-oe just for being able to number GIT versions incrementally.

Could gitpkgv be moved into oe-core? (I'll be happy to write and submit the patch.) Or, is there an alternative that does something similar?

Kind regards,
Mike.
