+ Make inter-release --version output more useful.
+ Now, each snapshot has a version "number" like 6.9-219-g58ddd,
+ which indicates that it is built using the 219th change set
+ (in _some_ repository) following the "v6.9" tag, and that 58ddd
+ is a prefix of the commit SHA1.
+ * build-aux/git-version-gen: New file.
+ * configure.ac: Run it to set the version.
+ * Makefile.am (dist-hook): Arrange so that .version appears only
+ in distribution tarballs, never in a checked-out repository.
+ * .gitignore: Add .version here, too. Just in case.
+
Ensure that TMPDIR is valid. Otherwise, it would cause test failures.
* tests/misc/tty-eof: Set TMPDIR=.
* tests/misc/sort-compress: Likewise.
