Hi,

When I build openscad from source code the About gives me the
compilation date as version. Is there a source code version number
somewhere?

No, there is no such a thing except for releases. The build date is
the default.

The nightly builds use -DOPENSCAD_COMMIT=... adding the git commit
hash.

ciao,

Okay, tnx.

I'm not that familiar with Git :( , how can I make sure I've the latest
version of the source code?

I can't really answer that as this depends very much on what you are
trying to achieve.

Build now and then, you can grab the ZIP file from github and build
that code. This will give the code base at exactly the time of download.

If you don't plan to change the code, learning enough git to just
fetch the latest version could work too. If you do a full rebuild
it's pretty much just the single command shown on the github page
next to the ZIP download.

If you just want to follow the latest version and building yourself
is not a requirement, there's other options that are built on every
check-in and can be just installed.

ciao,
Torsten.
