+Subject: [PATCH] build: Use hardcoded version variable
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Before this commit the version was generated from git tag/commit hash.
+This caused problems with having empty version variable while building
+outside of git. Fix this by hardcoding the variable.
