Because of some problems with the macOS build of git master, I just modified it that instead of cloning the repo it just downloads the current master from https://github.com/geany/geany/archive/refs/heads/master.tag.gz. The tarball, however, doesn't contain a git repository and the build fails with
Program python3 found: YES (/Users/jhbuild/gtk/inst/bin/python3)
Program rst2html found: NO
Program rst2pdf found: NO
Program git found: YES (/usr/bin/git)
Running command: /usr/bin/git rev-parse --short --revs-only HEAD
--- stdout ---
--- stderr ---
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
../../../../gtk/source/geany-git/meson.build:170:1: ERROR: Command `/usr/bin/git rev-parse --short --revs-only HEAD` failed with status 128.
It appears that the problem is the line here which doesn't check if the repo exists (or recovers from the error):
https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/2509e21526d36034f5251381a76555e7300fbfc0/meson.build#L170
Once we make a release, the release tarballs will suffer from the same problem so I think it's something that should be fixed.
@kugel- Since you are the meson expert, any idea what the best solution of this problem should be?
