That's confusing. If your web site is just a checkout, what is the
"make install" for? If it is a repo, you have the version information
anyway, and at all times.

And if this extra step is indeed present, why can't the "make install"
just save the HEAD somewhere for later reference?

You'll find you have plenty of savings for anything.
