mrfioc2 software version and git tag

[Insomnia1437]

When I read $(P)SwVer-I PV, I found the value becomes something like: kmod-deb-3-0-2-gd1f0ec7f-dirty rather than 2.6.0

The MRF_VERSION macro is generated from genVersionHeader.pl

perl -CSD ../genVersionHeader.pl -t "../../.." -V "2.6.0" -N MRF_VERSION version.h
Creating VCS version header version.h with "kmod-deb-3-0-13-gd1f0ec7f-dirty"

inside genVersionHeader.pl, it uses the most recent tag and current commit ID to denote the mrfioc2 version

mrfioc2/mrfCommon/src/genVersionHeader.pl

Lines 64 to 72 in 5b21096

	if(!$foundvcs && -d "$opt_t/.git") {
	# same format as Mercurial
	$result = `git --git-dir="$opt_t/.git" describe --tags --dirty`;
	chomp($result);
	if(!$? && length($result)>1) {
	$opt_V = $result;
	$foundvcs = 1;
	}
	}

Perhaps we should remove these two tags or modify genVersionHeader.pl to keep digit tags only

• kmod-deb-3-0
• kmod-rpm-3-1

@Insomnia1437 , kmod releases are not the IOC releases. There is the IOC artefact so the ci is for the upgrade in the future.
