That'll simplify packaging of snapshots (see > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=536469) > [...] These snapshot tarball files normally contain a SNAPSHOT file with the git commit code in it. (The last few missed it due to a sysadmin snafu on sourceware.org.) But really, these snapshots are auto-deleted frequently that they should not be treated as long-lasting or easily-reproducible artifacts. If you want to keep packaging snapshots for debian, may I suggest generating your own "git archive" copy, named however you see fit? - FChE
