That's exactly my point. master is not a version indicator. > It is not a build dependency, people can write it down on a piece of > paper if they like. I think you misunderstood: If people have to use git to compile master, there's a build dependency on git. Of course you could always grab master as zip file from github, which most likely noone is going to do anyway. Also, the sentiment of "writing down on paper" can't be serious. Are we in the stone age? In which case we don't need tmux in the first place. But ok, it's your code. You want to make it difficult for others. That's your prerogative. It just doesn't make any sense to be stubborn, when a few lines of code could provide you and others with more information that could be useful - especially to you. Currently, if you have a compiled version from git, you don't know anything. I'm connected to a machine and try to figure out which version of tmux is running. I type `tmux -V` and get `tmux master`. I'm sorry, but this is just stupid. Cheers, K. C. -- regards Helmut K. C.
