Tarball from Github contains root directory named geeqie-1.2.3. So there
is a reasonable fallback. Not perfect, but good enough.
Simply force generation of version.h during build and it will be fine.
Hooks are much more problematic. I use generated version info in all my
projects and it works very well.
My last Qt project used this in qmake project file:
GIT_VERSION = $$system(git --git-dir $$PWD/.git --work-tree $$PWD \
describe --always --tags)
DEFINES += GIT_VERSION=\\\"$$GIT_VERSION\\\"
It results in gcc -DGIT_VERSION=\"1.2.3\" ...
