My 0.02€: For a research project we regenerate a header file with a string containing the working copy status information, // file version.h #define REV "<version-output>" and there is a very small C file which is recompiled with a constant string based on the version: // version.c #include "version.h" const char * version = REV; The make dependencies ensure that the header file is regenerated on each build with a phony target, and the C file is thus recompiled and linked into the executables on each build. It means that all executables are linked on each rebuild, even if not necessary, though. > No idea what to do about the latter. "svnversion" adds a "M" for modified on the status. There is an option with "git describe" to get something similar: git describe --long --always --all --dirty Also there is a need of a fall back if this fails, to get "<unknown version>" instead. -- Fabien. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
