Usually I try to review very critically parts of a series that can negatively affect those users who do *not* use a new feature each topic tries to add or improve, and it means for this topic, if it breaks builds that do not involve meson, it would automatically qualify the topic to be ejected from the tree (side note: if a breakage is for those who use meson, as long as it is not as grave as running an equivalent of "sudo rm -fr /", I'll let it through), but this time because there was no textual conflict, the hardcoded GIT-VERSION unfortunately went through. I however somehow thought that those who are building from a repository should get "git describe" name instead of the hardcoded fallback name in GIT-VERSION. At least, it is my understanding that is the intent of that series.

Thanks.
