I’m going to close this in favor of #202. I originally added Git metadata because CONTRIBUTING.md didn’t provide a convention for identifying development builds. After thinking about it more, documenting -dev.N versions addresses the original need more simply, without adding build-script machinery. |

What changed
terminalist --versionfor builds made from a Git checkout;dirtywhen tracked working-tree changes were present at build time;Why
Local development builds currently share the package version, which makes it difficult to tell which checkout produced an installed binary. Including the revision makes bug reports and local testing easier without changing release-version semantics.
The build script watches Git's actual
HEAD, index, and current branch-ref paths, as well assrcandbuild.rs, so Cargo refreshes the revision and dirty state after commits and working-tree changes. Resolving the paths through Git also supports linked worktrees.Validation
