can we simply call this method in source code, instead of doing so in post install script? I think we can get rid of such a post install script.

@Yicong-Huang, this was a design decision because the buildNumber includes the date.
- In the current format, it shows the date when
yarn installis run. - In the advised format (in source code), it shows the date the user loads the page.
If we go with option 2, should I remove the date and show only the version, not the build number?

hmm. neither option is reflecting the actual build time.
yarn installis to install packages. we need to generate this date when we actually build frontend for prod.- "when user loads the page" is also meaning less to be shown as a build time.
can we bundle this command with yarn run build --prod etc (I might be wrong on the exact build command)?

for dev environment, it is fine to either show a "dev" or git sha. This feature (show build number) is mainly for production usage.

What changes were proposed in this PR?
frontend/git-version.jswithfrontend/build-version.js, which usesbuild-number-generatorto stamp a version + timestamp build number instead of shelling out togit describe.git-describedevDependency forbuild-number-generator, and pointed thepostinstallscript at the new file.src/environments/version.tsschema to{ buildNumber, version }, since the oldgit-describeoutput fields had a single consumer.DashboardComponent.gitCommitHashtobuildNumber, updated the footer label toBuild:, and renamed the#git-commit-idCSS id to#build-number.Any related issues, documentation, or discussions?
