Patch 1:
Now we have two different versions that produce different superblocks/
filesystems with the same version info. Major/minor version in the sb
should reflect the version of the tool creating the filesystem. This
patch will ensure that the version entered in the file VERSION will
be used consistently throughout the code.
Patch 2:
In order to simplify the maintenance with a new release the date
in F2FS_TOOLS_DATE is now take from the last commit in git. Thus,
git is needed to run autoconf. However, git is not needed for the
simple build procedure, ./configure && make, that should be the
only things needed to build the tool from a tar.gz package.
Pros & Cons:
[+] Automated
[+] True
[-] Git needed to run autoreconf
Change log by Jaegeuk from the initial patch-set:
- Merge two patches into one
: Eliminate the intermediate state having version.h and VERSION.
- Remove the Git dependency which is one of Cons
: If there is no git tree, just use DATE described in VERSION.
- Minor coding style
Pros & Cons:
[+] Automated
[+] True
[+] No Git dependency

"Usually, it is used 128-bits UUID for serial number. Why do you use
__le32 as volume_serial_number?"
>From Vyacheslav Dubeyko.
I added an uuid facility for the serial number.
And sync with kernel/include/linux/f2fs_fs.h.
