Hello,

>  $ gzip -cd snapshot.tar.gz | git-get-tar-commit-id

not good enough. What he wants is:

        - user loads tar tree down from gitweb via the 'snapshot'
          button.

        - user extracts the tarball and types make

        - The output of the produced binary contains a unique
          identifier.
