Greetings,

My git host lacked a proper repository. So a version.h file was copied
from the 1.9.2-20150930 tarball and pasted into the topmost geda-gaf git
clone directory. The tarball version.h contains:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
/* Date part of package version string. */
#define PACKAGE_DATE_VERSION "20150930"

/* Dotted part of package version string. */
#define PACKAGE_DOTTED_VERSION "1.9.2"

/* Current git commit. */
#define PACKAGE_GIT_COMMIT "7b0ee03164717d9b9ba9edacd1b1711281a864ef"

/* Current 'git describe' version string. */
#define PACKAGE_GIT_VERSION "1.9.1-20140308-471-g7b0ee03"
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know how to obtain the proper values of those four defines?
Does git log -p -1 return the PACKAGE_GIT_COMMIT? (A last commit date of
Sat Jan 16 seems wrong to me.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ git log -p -1
commit f85c2c71ca422a17011ab59d1f886cb85306980e

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why.
Then do it.
