[IPython-User] installation failure, no section "commit hash"

[Moritz Emanuel Beber]

Hi,

cat IPython/.git_commit_info.ini results in:

# This is an ini file that may contain information about the code state
[commit hash]

# The line below may contain a valid hash if it has been substituted during
# 'git archive'
archive_subst_hash=$Format:%h$

# This line may be modified by the install process
install_hash=

The Python code you asked for also seems fine:

 >>> from ConfigParser import ConfigParser
 >>> cfg_p = ConfigParser()
 >>> cfg_p.read("IPython/.git_commit_info.ini")
['IPython/.git_commit_info.ini']
 >>> print cfg_p.sections()
['commit hash']

I fear that's not enlightening...
