Once upon a time I tried to do the same for Pollen and couldn't sort it out. AFAICT the git hash isn't generated until the commit is made. Instead, I ended up adding a git push hook that writes a timestamp into a "ts.rktd" file as part of the commit. Then when Pollen is installed, that timestamp can be baked into the version number as a "build number". [1] So it is not the git hash, but it still identifies a particular commit. I'm sure this offends common decency, but it has indeed been useful for pinpointing user problems.
