UdjinM6 f72650d2de feat: Set client version for non-release binaries and version in guix based on git tags (#5653) ... ## Issue being fixed or feature implemented Client version string is inconsistent. Building `v20.0.0-beta.8` tag locally produces binaries that report `v20.0.0-beta.8` version but binaries built in guix would report `v20.0.0rc1-g3e732a952226a20505f907e4fd9b3fdbb14ea5ee` instead. Building any commit after `v20.0.0-beta.8` locally would result in versions like `v20.0.0rc1-8c94153d2497` which is close but it's still yet another format. And both versions with `rc1` in their names are confusing cause you'd expect them to mention `beta.8` instead maybe (or is it just me? :D ). ## What was done? Change it so that the version string would look like this: on tag: ~`v20.0.0-beta.8-dev` or `v20.0.0-beta.8-gitarc`~ `v20.0.0-beta.8` post-tag: ~`v20.0.0-beta.8-1-gb837e08164-gitarc`~ `v20.0.0-beta.8-1-gb837e08164` post-tag format is `recent tag`-`commits since that tag`-`g+12 chars of commit hash`-`dirty (optional)` ~-`dev or gitarc`~ ~`dev`/`gitarc` suffixes should help avoiding confusion with the release versions and they also indicate the way non-release binaries were built.~ Note that release binaries do not use any of this, they still use `PACKAGE_VERSION` from `configure` like before. Also, `CLIENT_VERSION_RC` is no longer used in this setup so it was removed. Few things aren't clear to me yet: 1. Version bump in `configure.ac` no longer affects the reported version (unless it's an actual release). Are there any downsides I might be missing? 2. Which tag should we use on `develop` once we bump version in configure? `v21.0.0-init`? `v21.0.0-alpha1`? 3. How is it going to behave once `merge master back into develop` kind of PR is merged? E.g. say `develop` branch is on `v21.0.0-alpha1` tag and we merge v20.1.0 from `master` back into it. Will this bring `v20.1.0` release tag into `develop`? Will it become the one that will be used from that moment? If so we will probably need another tag on `develop` every time such PR is merged e.g. `v21.0.0-alpha2` (or whatever the next number is). Don't think these are blockers but would like to hear thoughts from others. ## How Has This Been Tested? Built binaries locally, built them using guix at a specific tag and at some commit on top of it. ## Breaking Changes n/a ## Checklist: - [x] I have performed a self-review of my own code - [x] I have commented my code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas - [ ] I have added or updated relevant unit/integration/functional/e2e tests - [ ] I have made corresponding changes to the documentation - [x] I have assigned this pull request to a milestone _(for repository code-owners and collaborators only)_		2024-01-11 21:43:42 -06:00
