Yes, this patch would fix the version tag too. The patch I wrote also reports a commit id even in the case when no tag is found. This was the original reason why I stumbled over this. Assume a repository for testing there you just push the commit id to. This does not contain any tags but a valid commit id. Now, it determines the version tag from the makefile but does not drop the commit id. -Robert -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
