&gt; Yes. I think autogen.sh and <a href="http://configure.ac" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">configure.ac</a> shouldn&#39;t rely on git for package<br>
&gt; versioning.<br>
&gt; The automation/build-artifacs.sh script can take care of adding suffixes to<br>
&gt; rpm release if needed at build time.<br>
&gt; Version should be statically defined within <a href="http://configure.ac" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">configure.ac</a>.<br>
<br>
</span>Yaniv is using a git clone, so depending on git is fine in this case.<br>
<br>
The tarball should not have any dependencies on git.<br>
<br>
I think the issue is missing tags - this works:<br>
<span class=""><br>
git clone -b master --depth 1 git://<a href="http://gerrit.ovirt.org/vdsm" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">gerrit.ovirt.org/vdsm</a><br>

&gt;&gt;&gt; As the difference is 1:10 in data size and I only wish to work on the<br>
