-gerrit commit a04bb6f22eec2673f61fc98c03c224a5f5985b13 Author: Sven Schnelle <sv...@stackframe.org> Date: Fri Aug 26 21:57:53 2011 +0200 Add dirty flag to git describe git describe knows --dirty, which adds -dirty to the verion number if the tree contains uncommited changes. We should add this flag to make it obvious that the COREBOOT_VERSION might be misleading. This is especially important as this version number is now used in the SMBIOS data structures.
