Derive version from git repository and elsewhere
100%
Description
Derive version string from:
git describeVERSIONfile- constant in build script
The procedure should be implemented in Python as part of wscript.
The derived version string should be used to generate core/version.cpp, and also written into VERSION file.

Is a similar feature already implemented in ndn-cxx and NFD?
Updated by Junxiao Shi about 8 years ago
Answer to note-3:
Yes, both NFD and ndn-cxx wscript already have this feature.
However, I dislike the implementation in NFD. See discussion in #2671.

Is the version string derived from all three sources or are they in an order of precedence (if can't determine version from git describe, try VERSION file)?
Updated by Alex Afanasyev about 8 years ago
These order:
- git describe
- version file
- constant
version file is autogenerated using git describe and should not exist in the repository (created for standalone .tar.gz archives). constant in wscript is used as a backup if something went wrong.
