While packaging hy for Alpine Linux I noticed that the VERSIONFILE is ignored if hy is build in a git repository. On Alpine the packages are build in the package repository resulting in a wrong hy version. This change allows specifying the version in an environment variable which is preferred over git-describe(1) and the VERSIONFILE.
Hy
Lisp and Python should love each other. Let's make it happen.
Hy is a Lisp dialect that's embedded in Python. Since Hy transforms its Lisp code into Python abstract syntax tree (AST) objects, you have the whole beautiful world of Python at your fingertips, in Lisp form.
To install the latest stable release of Hy, just use the command pip3 install --user hy. Then you can start an interactive read-eval-print loop (REPL) with
the command hy, or run a Hy program with hy myprogram.hy.
