Here is example what can be done. satyr-simplifications.patch.txt
Not sure what you’re doing, but that tarball is literally what you get from git-archive. I’m not exactly inclined to generate distribution ones and upload them by hand every time.
The versioning will also stay as-is until we can move to Meson and simplify things even more.
I have implemented build procedure which does not rely on you tar balls generated by dist/distcheck targets. This allows me to build satyr package using any point of commit.
By this is not possible to download tar ball from tag and use it.
That tar (current one https://github.com/abrt/satyr//archive/0.29/satyr-0.29.tar.gz) is not with git data.
Suggestion: remove autogen.sh content replace it with one command "autoreconf -fiv". After remove many lines in Makefile.am all what it would be necessary is maintain version in first line of the configure.ac.
