To Reproduce 1) Download release 2) Don't have installed git 3) Compilation will fail

Expected behavior 1) Compilation will work without installed Git

Hi thanks for the report,

I can confirm that. I checked it quickly in a docker container. Seems to be a regression, compiling without git worked at one point :)

I'm looking into it. In the meanwhile you can use the CI created souce release file also listed under the release:

• https://github.com/jahnf/Projecteur/releases/download/v0.7/projecteur-0.7_source.tar.gz instead of the one that is failing (https://github.com/jahnf/Projecteur/archive/v0.7.tar.gz)

Version generation should be fixed when building exported git archives or without having git installed for all future versions.
