<p>Comment (by Roland Haas):</p>
<p>I must have been sleeping when I wrote that patch. While git does not provide the full set of <code>$Foo$</code> tags that svn provides, the one it <em>does</em> provide is <code>$Id$</code> which resolves to the git hash. So really instead of the overly complex TeX code I could have just as well put <code>$Id$</code> into the LaTeX file, and added</p>
<div class="codehilite language-plaintext"><pre><span></span>*.tex ident
</pre></div>


<p>to <code>.gitattributes</code>. This is described in <a data-is-external-link="true" href="https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Attributes#_keyword_expansion" rel="nofollow">https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Attributes#_keyword_expansion</a> and I had even read that page before / while writing the code in the pull request.</p>
