[PATCH] git-project-version

From: Santi Béjar <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:42:35
Subsystem: kernel build + files below scripts/ (unless maintained elsewhere), the rest · Maintainers: Nathan Chancellor, Nicolas Schier, Linus Torvalds

Introduce an easy way for projects to get its git version. This is
something that other projects using git would like to do, and we don't
want them all reinventing the wheel.

Hi *,

I would prefer an output with an explicit git string as:

v1.4.2-rc3-git46faaaf

Also I would prefer the dirty state with an ending M as in:

v1.4.2-rc3-git46faaaf-M

to use the same letter of the diff family.

   Santi
