The VCS version string in nova/version.py has been hardcoded to 'LOCALBRANCH:LOCALVERSION' since change 0bbb0e8cb1daa351af91cf97b2bcababfc0c7f9f The only places which use this info are some logging calls, and since 'nova-manager version' command. The latter would more usefully output the distro specific package string. Delete the VCS related methods in version.py and replace their usage with a new method version_string_with_package() which appends the distro-specific package tag Change-Id: I972b79c329198cb5376d537c6b672830094cd759 Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
