So the revision.inc is for Lazarus only, not FPC? I need to compile Lazarus
and FPC from a source only archive without the metadata, and I am creating
the revision.inc for Lazarus from the commit messages. If it is not
necessary for FPC then that should be fine, otherwise I will have to clone
the corresponding commits for the compilation.
