Subject: [PATCH] configure: support arbitrary versions via a shell script
Date: Sun, 13 Nov 2011 23:10:00 -0000	[thread overview]

# HG changeset patch

configure: support arbitrary versions via a shell script

If the executable file '.version.sh' exists, then use its output for
the version.  Fall back to the contents of '.version' if the script
fails.

Note that .version.sh doesn't have to be a shell script.  I considered
making .version itself executable instead but this would cause trouble
with FAT based filesystems.

The fallback to .version is a bit dodgy.  Failing might be stricter
but is unfriendly.
