Sure, I'll do that. Then, perhaps we should even rewrite git-version-gen using (git describe). It would be nice to have that in guile too.

Yes, but I discard the commit part of git-version-gen's output. I keep only the tag part. But, like zimoun, I didn't understand why we can't rebuild the manual every commit. Rebuilding the manual is quite cheap. So, substituting it shouldn't be a problem, right? > One way to avoid that would be to look at the latest commit that touch > doc/ instead of the latest commit overall (I think that=E2=80=99s what zi= moun > was suggesting). Roughly run =E2=80=98git describe=E2=80=99 on =E2=80=98= git log doc/=E2=80=99, so to > speak. (Using Guile-Git.) This sounds good. I'll try it and get back to you. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEf3MDQ/Lwnzx3v3nTLiXui2GAK7MFAl8VV6EACgkQLiXui2GA K7PmqAf/S2ttkVBAnJnydeHPje3CBRwdu/cF2UaIDQgQXdvgcC3bf/VkdI8MXcd/ d9th3ahuaQ63prz7JH1EnvF9QuVGRhjTo1D1C1GF5gEpLQNLdGO07S0YS4J0h5TJ JXd1mSJGVOrW/fYbGDL3YbWXNhbFTk6HJiWhkwdebvlhVDjYoYV83GafHwdGMkLG 6Df6bs6eoR2D8aQc+0rZPcZYGjpcIJc/bkOlwuMAbd13YD14meC349JNwDMcZvlJ pT6HUGcDqcIZ27bEuAjOmbkxcKFnPnm3pQOUmptNTIqEIzVHvoYv/dpMYOlYI8lH onpYAgQglPt33tr7/AJC9VTKLTXKHA== =/GWM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
