Change subject: Update the build process to determine versioning using git tags
......................................................................


Patch Set 1:

There are reasons for this change:

1) I want the release process to be automatic and unified (there will be a 
Jenkins job to take care of that)
2) I want the process for release and for nightly build to be as similar as 
possible
3) The ability to get the exact git commit used for any build (both nightly and 
release) is useful for debugging
4) Our versioning is a mess and violates RPM rules regarding version and 
release parts (http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/ch-rpm-file-format.html)

Regarding your comments - the version collision won't happen if you obey the 
rules I described in README.maintainers (add extra digit when you create a 
branch). And only maintainers are allowed to create release branches anyway.
