Why should the git-describe info not be part of the ELPA tarball?  If
there is a good reason not to include it (I think it is useful
to know which commit the ELPA archive was built on) one could alter the
include file before rolling the tar ball of course.

Emacs does have its own build system.  So there's be two possibilities:
a) just copy over git-decribe.texi as is or b) alter it and put in any
information that's deemed more appropriate before it gets copied over to
bzr.  It might even be useful to actually include the information back
into the org.texi file to have a single file.  Once it is decided how
this should be handled, it can all become part of the makefile of
course.

Please note that the name "git-describe.texi" is only a suggestion and
should probably be changed later on to something like "version.texi".

Thank you.
