Actually, we *have* to do it over there, because what that script
does is
# Export the selected git ref
git archive ${i} | tar xf - -C pgsql
cd pgsql
./configure
# some irrelevant stuff
make dist
So there's no .git subdirectory in the directory it runs "make dist"
in. Now maybe it'd work anyway because of the GIT_DIR environment
variable, but what I think is more likely is that the file would
end up containing the current master-branch HEAD commit, whereas
the thing we actually want to record here is ${i}.
