Adam Kocoloski commented on COUCHDB-1079:
-----------------------------------------
Yeah, no big deal. I think our use of Subversion ensures that git-describe
will not provide useful output anyway.
> Fix local version append

> Key: COUCHDB-1079
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1079
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Paul Joseph Davis
>
> The local version info is awesome to be able to track down exactly what
> commit someone has built locally with, but the way that info is appended
> caused some confusion:
> 1.2.0ac052866-git
> I tried a handful of git sha's from that info before I broke down and read
> the bootstrap and acinclude.m4.in sources to figure out what was going on. It
> turns out, the version info is:
> 1 (Major) 2 (Minor) 0 (Revision) a (Alpha) (c052866-git) (Local)
> As you might guess, figuring out why Git was telling me that revisions
> 0ac052886 and ac052886 was mildly irritating. I would propose we just add a
> dot to separate the local part as in:
> 1.2.0a.c052886-git
> I'd commit this but I figured I should go ahead and see if anyone has any
> objections first.
