[Spice-devel] [PATCH spice-gtk v2] build-sys: Make git-version-gen work again with Meson

[Frediano Ziglio]

> 
> d0cbd9618f0b removed the ability to use git-version-gen to generate
> proper version string.
> Generate .tarball-version file in the distribution file to allow
> building from tarball.
> Do not use MESON_SOURCE_ROOT when calling git-version-gen command as
> this won't be expanded.
> Change directory in git-version-gen script to allow the script to be
> called from a different directory.

Sorry, removed this last sentence.
