Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
Removes old defines and work arounds for earlier wx versions and adds a
CMake requirement to use at least 3.2 (or the minimum matching wxPython
version)
The simulator has advanced considerably, and it is seeing lots of active
development, so make it a required part of KiCad. Additionally, the
build without the simulator has actually been broken for a while, so no
one clearly is building without ngspice right now.
We shouldn't include the kicad_build_info.h outside of the wrapper
build_info.h. Also adds an error directive to prevent re-introduction
of define dependencies
Include two new pieces of information:
- Running platform
- Compiled platform (where these are different)
Additionally, we include information about the linux distribution where
it is available.

wxWidgets 3.1.5+ on Linux will compile with the Wayland EGL
canvas as the backend instead of the X11 backend. This requires a
version of GLEW compiled with the proper EGL defines and a different
header/code for certain parts that are X11 GLEW specific.
This introduces an in-tree version of GLEW that will be built with the
GLEW_EGL flag then statically linked into the KiCad executables when
EGL support is needed.
The config.h header for ngspice is not packaged with all platforms so
use pkg-config to fetch the version information when available. When
pkg-config is not available, check if the ngspice/config.h file is
installed on the system before including it to build the ngspice version
string. If neither pkg-config or ngspice/config.h is available set the
version string to "unknown".

Let cmake generate the needed version strings, so we don't
have to spend program time doing it. This simplifies the
settings manager versioning.
Also, convert some file line endings to UNIX from Windows.
A more robust fix for https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/4015.
Previously, the build version would only update if the dialog_about.cpp
file were modified. This moves the date generation into the same file
as the build version, so it will be updated whenever a new version
is made.
Define empty string variable KICAD_BRANCH_NAME that can be used as an
optional version string element. When git is used to build the version
string, this variable is set to the git branch name. It can also be
defined at configuration time as an optional string appended to the
$KICAD_VERSION variable.
Define empty string variable KICAD_VERSION_EXTRA that can be set by
the user at configuration.
The variables KICAD_BRANCH_NAME and KICAD_VERSION_EXTRA are only
appended to KICAD_VERSION if they are set. Otherwise, only KICAD_VERSION
is uses as the version string.
Update the developer building from source document to reflect the changes.
Remove the KICAD_REPO_NAME option from the main cmake file and the
generated config.h file since it is no longer used.
Set the default branch name to "undefined" in CreateGitVersionHeader.cmake
instead of the KICAD_REPO_NAME option.
Remove generating KICAD_FULL_VERSION from CreateGitVersionHeader.cmake
and add it to WriteVersionHeader.cmake so that the default settings and
the new KiCadVersion.cmake definitions can be used to generate the full
version string as well.
Check to see if the branch name is set and only use the version to
generate the full version string. This allows the use of the KiCad
version cmake file to create a version only string like "4.0.4" with
no trailing branch name.
Change build_version.cpp to use the full version string rather than
concatenating the version and branch strings.
It is no longer necessary (or sensible) to include a simulated bzr
revision number, and we can reliably get a branch name now. Therefore,
the new version strings look like:
(2016-08-26 revision 67230ac)-master
| | |
| | branch name, "HEAD" if not on a branch,
| | or "unknown" if no .git present
| |
| abbreviated commit hash, or no-git if no .git
| present
|
date of commit, or date of build if no .git present

* Fix CMake macro create_bzr_version_header to always update version.h file whenever a repo change
is found. Running `make rebuild_cache is no longer required.
* Add new CMake function for writing version.h file.
* Always use version.h file for build version string instead of meaningless hard coded date.
* Only use bzr version string when build version is not defined at configuration time for stable release
version strings.
* Minor cleanup of FindBazaar.cmake.
* Remove unnecessary version.h.cmake file.
