Kevin,

what toolchain is needed to generate a clean build / without hostname/datestamp in the version string? Can coreboots toolchain be used? I'm using Ubuntu 15.04's default apparently (I'd have to check versions), which results in cleanbuild = false.

thanks,
Matt

This patch series changes the SeaBIOS build to no longer permit one to
 provide a custom version string via "make VERSION=xyz".  In its place
 the build will allow extra information to be added to the standard
 version string via a new "EXTRAVERSION" variable.  For example: "make
 EXTRAVERSION=-coreboot"

 In order to facilitate "reproducible" builds, this patch series also
 changes the build to no longer include the system hostname nor build
 time on default "clean" builds.  Specifically, if git is available,
 the git repo is not in a "dirty" state, and gcc/binutils versions are
 successfully extracted, then the default version string will just
 contain the git version information.  However, should any of the
preceding tests not succeed, then the version will continue to include
 the hostname and build time.

FYI, I committed this series.
