[Scons-dev] SCons release version tagging question

[Bill Deegan]

Greetings,

I'm fixing some logic in SCons's own SConstruct which sets the revision
number.
Currently is has the revision #, changeset has, branch, and whether it's
modified.

I also notice that 2.3.4 didn't have this info, so I'm guessing it
bootstrap.py was passed the revision id

(venv)WilliamsMacBook:scons-2.3.4 bdbaddog$ scons --version
SCons by Steven Knight et al.:
    script: v2.3.4, 2014/09/27 12:51:43, by garyo on lubuntu
    engine: v2.3.4, 2014/09/27 12:51:43, by garyo on lubuntu
    engine path: ['/Users/bdbaddog/tmp/venv/lib/scons-2.3.4/SCons']

Should this be the practice going forward?
Or is there value in having 2.3.5, revision #3252, changeset 385adb84f  for
example?
