What i want is a clever mechanism to store the SemVer (or
Commit-ID) in the binary at compiletime - automatically.
Otherwise i have to think to update a const in the code every
time i build a new Version.
enum versionData = import("version.dat");
enum min = anyCTFEFunctionThatParsesMin(versionData);
enum maj = anyCTFEFunctionThatParsesMaj(versionData);
// etc... you can even use compile-time regex...
The path to the file "version.dat" must be specified with the
-J DMD command line.
Generating the file is another story, maybe a git script could
do that.
I have an example here:
https://github.com/BBasile/Coedit/blob/master/cesetup/cesetup.d#L165
I don't use semVer but you basically get the method.
