[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] version.sh: Always use latest tag for generated version number

[Nicolas George]

Le quintidi 15 ventôse, an CCXXIV, Timothy Gu a écrit :

I think the date should be present too, it is the only information that can
be parsed without any previous knowledge.

> - It should also be gitrevisions(7)-compatible

Extra information can be added in a separate chunk:

version gitrevisions-compatible (extra details)

compn: the date is the date of the latest commit, not the build date. A
three-years-old version will have a three-years-old latest commit.
