that part of the code is there because the older version appended the version info to the README which meant that if you ran it >1 time, multiple copies of the version info would go into the file. However, if the VERSION file should only be a generated file for distribution bundles, I'll remove this code and also remove the tracking of the file.
The file is autogenerated and should not be tracked. The way
create_package.py
currently works, it writes the current git commit hash to the file but then changes a tracked file (VERSION), thus creating a change to the wrt. to the commit it is referencing. The code still works correctly, but it is just wrong.@rmm-fcul what's actually the purpose of this code in
create_package.py
