I have this on my list of things to look at. It should be possible to
get CMake to generate make files that compare the source repo version
against the version.h file and recreate it as required every time make
is run. Currently, the only time version.h gets updated is when the
CMake files are modified or make rebuild_cache is run.
I checked it right now : I added "make rebuild-dep" to beginning of
the build process in kicad-install.sh. Running it with a kicad install
witj not up to date version info results in rebuilding only
build_version.cpp and relinking all parts that have a user interface.
Rebuilding the dependencies is not what you want to do if all you are
trying to do is update the version string.

yes of course that was rebuild_cache, I made a mistake writing the mail.
So as you said you want to get Cmake to compare the version with the one
in the file, I'm pretty sure it is not necessary. Just calling make
rebuild_cache before make do the job pretty well.
This is not the optimal solution. Using rebuild_cache will update
version.h even if the repo has not changed and cause unnecessary build
and link steps. It's fine as a quick fix but the correct solution is to
have CMake generate the appropriate make file steps to test if there is
any change to the version string and regenerate version.h accordingly.
