Issue after changing from xz to zstd

[Hartmut Birr]

Hi,

I did change the Makefile for dnsmasq in the way that I give:

PKG_SOURCE_URL:=git://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq.git
PKG_SOURCE_PROTO:=git
PKG_SOURCE_DATE:=2024-03-27
PKG_SOURCE_VERSION:=550c368adea12b312f83686c61f9015c122046c2	# Treat cache insertion failure of DNSKEY and DS records as another resource problem and fail validation with suitable logging.
PKG_MIRROR_HASH:=284a34bdb967ec8a9dff132df065ca64e9a1819d79bb8cecee1af001e22d626c

Before changing to zstd, the generated source tar ball contains a file 'VERSION' with content '$Format:%d$'. This does match the dnsmasq git repository. After changing to zstd, VERSION contains ' (HEAD, origin/master, origin/HEAD, master)'.

Any idea why VERSION is manipulated?

I generate automatically a patch which modifies VERSION to see the commit hash via logread. Applying the patch doesn't work any more.

dnsmasq/patches/999-dnsmasq-version.patch:
diff --git a/VERSION b/VERSION
index 998eb1f..9977908 100644
--- a/VERSION
+++ b/VERSION
@@ -1 +1 @@
-$Format:%d$
+ (master, v2.90deb2-8-g550c368, head)

Regards,
Hartmut
