My point is that iff git-archive doesn't include the .git/ directory, then the 
code dump will not compile in case of darktable. We either require .git/ to be 
able to run the git command to get the version string, or a cached copy of the 
generated version.cmake in the tar archive. This is taken care of when using 
"make pkgsrc". If however the .git/ directory is included in the git-archive 
tar then everything is fine.
