FWIW, you can go to the git repo where you cloned ffmpeg and run: git describe --tags --match N which gives something like: N-28671-g3ea031b To get just the hash for the latest commit (last 7 chars in previous output): git describe --always which gives: 3ea031b Version stamp generation may fail sometimes, depending on how ffmpeg is built. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
