[edk2-devel] [PATCH v4 0/2] Set Firmware Version from build command line

[Rebecca Cran]

Sorry for not commenting on this earlier.

Would it be better to have people use the build `--pcd` option instead? 
e.g. build 
--pcd="gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdFirmwareVersionString=edk2-stable202302".
