-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Ralf Wildenhues on 3/24/2008 10:51 AM: | Note however that it is a significant hassle to get msysgit installed in | order to get Autoconf bootstrapped from git sources so that it doesn't | report a --version of UNKNOWN. You could always create a file .tarball-version with desired contents as a workaround to having a working git checkout. But this is only for copied tarballs, and not recommended for a true git checkout (since you lose the automatic versioning otherwise provided by git-version-gen when the .tarball-version file is intentionally not present). - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
