The bzr handling code I added to gnc-svnversion turns out to fail when

I noticed that the About box describes the output of gnc-svnversion as a
SVN revision number, which is now not necessarily true. I'll see about
sending in a patch to generalize this to refer to whatever VCS is in
use. Does anyone know if any code relies on the output of
gnc-svnversion being a number (in which case, it would already be broken
on a git revision id, I suppose)?
The output of gnc-svnversion is a string, that gets stuffed into a
format that looks something like "...SVN (r%s %s)" elsewhere in the code
./src/gnome-utils/gnc-splash.c: ver_string =
g_strdup_printf(_("Version: GnuCash-%s svn (r%s built %s)"),
./src/gnome-utils/gnc-splash.c: ver_string =
g_strdup_printf(_("Version: GnuCash-%s (r%s built %s)"),
I looked at it briefly and decided that it wasn't worth the time for me
to change. At least getting a readable version identifier in there was
enough. You'd need somehow to rework things so that both the string and
the VC system in use were used. Right now, the output of gnc-svnversion
is captured into a variable that is used by the make script.
I also figured out how to build gnucash in a different directory; I've
added some details about this to the wiki page:
