Right now, we are using Perforce for version control. It has the handy feature of a strictly increasing change number that we can use to refer to builds, eg "you'll get the bugfix if your build is at least 44902".
I'd like to switch over to using a distributed system (probably git) to make it easier to branch and to work from home. (Both of which are perfectly possible with Perforce, but the git workflow has some advantages.) So although "tributary development" would be distributed and not refer to a common revision sequencing, we'd still maintain a master git repo that all changes would need to feed into before a build was created.
What's the best way to preserve strictly increasing build ids? The most straightforward way I can think of is to have some sort of post-commit hook that fires off whenever the master repo gets updated, and it registers (the hash of) the new tree object (or commit object? I'm new to git) with a centralized database that hands out ids. (I say "database", but I'd probably do it with git tags, and just look for the next available tag number or something. So the "database" would really be .git/refs/tags/build-id/.)
This is workable, but I'm wondering if there is an easier, or already-implemented, or standard/"best practice" way of accomplishing this.
