Hi, I'm trying to pass an "include <file>" directive to Makefile.in without having it interpreted by Automake.
What I'm trying to do is to update a Makefile variable based on git-describe to provide a dynamic version string (in a very similar way to how Git is doing in their own repository). It works nicely on GNU Make with "-include" and "sinclude" because Automake doesn't interpret it, but if I use "include" instead it will run Automake on every compile (and we need to support non-GNU make programs). Is it possible to have some lines in Makefile.am included verbatim in Makefile.in, or any other way to define includes? Thanks, -- Thomas
