Use git describe to determine build version This patch makes the configure and build system use the output from 'git describe' to determine the version of the software being built. This means that all that is necessary to create a new release is to tag the repository - removing the double sources of version information. There are a couple of fallbacks for systems which do not have git available for builds. Firstly, if a file called '.version' exists in the top level of the repository, then the version information is pulled from this file. The intention is that those packaging up git checkouts for onwards distribution will use 'git describe > .version' before producing their tarballs. Secondly, if we cannot find any version information then the version will default to 'UNKNOWN' This all mirrors the way that many others have integrated git with automake and friends - although the implementation is independent.
