In partial reply to my own question, this has been discussed 2 years ago, but
apparently nothing ever came out of it.
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2012-February/056050.html
So once more the request to be able to get sane version strings for git repos.
Can we please just move gitpkgv. That's like five minutes work, and if anyone
(e.g. me) feels like building something better, he or she is free do submit
that and get rid of the gitpkgv class once it's obsolete.
Mike.
