Yes. I think autogen.sh and configure.ac shouldn't rely on git for package versioning.
The automation/build-artifacs.sh script can take care of adding suffixes to rpm release if needed at build time.
Version should be statically defined within configure.ac.

Cloning VDSM with the following command:
git clone -b master --depth 1 git://gerrit.ovirt.org/vdsm

Which works, but then I can't run ./autogen.sh succesfully:

I am going to run ./configure with no arguments - if you wish 
to pass any to it, please specify them on the ./autogen.sh command line.
configure: error: package version not defined

As the difference is 1:10 in data size and I only wish to work on the tip, this could be very useful to me.
Any ideas?
