Hi folks,
I'm doing some research on our usages of the $Header$ keyword in our
main CVS repo.
The primary use-case that has been publicly stated before was for users
to be able to identify to developers what version of a given ebuild they
were using.
Q: How much have you utilized the primary use case?
Q: Are there any other use-cases you have and actively use?
For evaluating existing uses of the primary case, I took a glance at
Bugzilla. There are 624 bugs total that contain a $Header$ with an
existing Gentoo path. At least 143 of those are for new packages or
version bumps (they copied existing ebuilds).
