Yeah, it's not overly well documented. No worries.
The MAJOR and MINOR are just for use when making tarballs, etc.
They should match the version numbers stated in src/version.cc.
So, for example, if I want to create a snapshot from scratch, I do:
git clone git://repo.or.cz/barry.git
mkdir scripts
cd scripts
git clone ../barry
git checkout scripts
cd ../barry
../scripts/snapshot.sh 0 15 master
You can use any branch or tag you like... master is probably the most common.
You will end up with snapshot tarballs under maintainer/build/
The .tar.bz2 is the full release, and the .tar.gz and friends are the deb
source package.
These scripts are designed to work under a debian based system, so in your
case you shouldn't have any trouble. It is less convenient for RPM folks.
