Merging r312043:
------------------------------------------------------------------------ r312043 | rnk | 2017-08-29 14:44:21 -0700 (Tue, 29 Aug 2017) | 25 lines [cmake] Stop putting the revision info in LLVM_VERSION_STRING Summary: This reduces the number of build actions after a no-op commit from thousands to about six, which should be acceptable. If six actions is still too many, developers can disable the LLVM_APPEND_VC_REV cmake option. llvm-config.h is a widely included header that should rarely change. Before this patch, it would change after every re-configure. Very few users of llvm-config.h need to know the precise version, and those that do can migrate to incorporating LLVM_REVISION as provided by llvm/Support/VCSRevision.h. This should bring LLVM back to the behavior that it had before r306858 from June 30 2017. Most LLVM tools will now print a version string like "6.0.0svn" instead of "6.0.0-git-c40c2a23de4".

**LLVM_APPEND_VC_REV**:BOOL
Embed version control revision info (svn revision number or Git revision id).
- This is used among other things in the LLVM version string (stored in the
- PACKAGE_VERSION macro). For this to work cmake must be invoked before the
- build. Defaults to ON.
+ The version info is provided by the ``LLVM_REVISION`` macro in
+ ``llvm/include/llvm/Support/VCSRevision.h``. Developers using git who don't
+ need revision info can disable this option to avoid re-linking most binaries
+ after a branch switch. Defaults to ON.
**LLVM_ENABLE_THREADS**:BOOL
Build with threads support, if available. Defaults to ON.
