    autotools: propagate git version info to distribution tarball
    
    Store the git describe output in the distribution tarball (make dist)
    and ensure that this version is always used for builds from this
    tarball. This will prevent the useless "Git Rev Unknown from unknown"
    output in tar-based builds.
    
    It will also prevent git from being invoked in tarball builds.
    
    Remove the git branch name since the commit ID (and git tag) in the git
    describe output is sufficient to identify the source tree. (In SVN, a
    revision ID had to be paired with a branch name to identify the source
    tree, in git this is no longer the case.)
