That is like what I used to do.  I switched to $(make kernelrelease)
to deal with LOCALVERSION (which I use via a file) and now the auto
localversion (which adds a ref to the most recent git commit in the
compiling tree).

I did do the bisect (I cannot exaggerate how much faster is was after
a $(git-repack -a -d && git-prune-packed).  Bigger than W.E.Coyote w/
a broken leg vs R.R in overdrive. :)

I'm posting the details separately.
