include svn rev in configure version #516

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
the current version produced by configure is always "0.1".  that has no useful 
meaning.  it'd be nice if it was the svn rev instead.

this is easy to do:
$ cat version.sh
#!/bin/sh
ver=`svn info | awk '$1 == "Revision:" { print $NF }'`
printf 'svn-%s' "${ver:-0}"

then change configure.ac like so:
-AC_INIT(breakpad, 0.1, google-breakpad-dev@googlegroups.com)
+AC_INIT(breakpad, m4_esyscmd([./version.sh]), 
google-breakpad-dev@googlegroups.com)

now we get:
$ ./configure --version | head -1
breakpad configure svn-1101
