Run git describe on build and push the output into xorg-git-version.h. Then
print that out in the logfile.

Do we want something like this? Suggestions for less dodgy implementations
are welcome, but the current one passes distcheck.

When I just run the script from the root dir, I get this:
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<PRE>
>~/xorg/src/xserver$ ./GIT-GENERATE-VERSION
test: 22: "xorg-server-1.8.0-40-ge35abc1": unexpected operator
</PRE>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
The xorg-git-version.h gets created correctly. The script just need to be a bit more robust, I guess.<BR>
<BR>
The file xorg-git-version.h should be added to include/.gitignore.<BR>
<BR>
Given that the purpose of this scheme is to "log" the most recent commit, the xorg-git-version.h should be<BR>
updated after the repo has been updated. This isn't the case now. I can do a git pull with new commits,<BR>
rebuild, and still get the same -ge35abc1. Perhaps it should be a PHONY target like ChangeLog. This would make<BR>
the information in log unreliable.<BR>
<BR>
A further improvement would be to run git show on the commit id (e.g. e35abc1) and write it to the log.<BR>
