[RFC,v7,04/22] Makefile: propagate Git version via generated header

Commit Message

Patrick Steinhardt Nov. 15, 2024, 7:21 a.m. UTC

We set up a couple of preprocessor macros when compiling Git that
propagate the version that Git was built from to `git version` et al.
The way this is set up makes it harder than necessary to reuse the
infrastructure across the different build systems.

Refactor this such that we generate a "version-def.h" header via
`GIT-VERSION-GEN` instead.
