Not sure I understand the question, but I think you're asking where/how
the value is generated.... Well it's generated if/when you run
"autoconfiscate.sh"... It'll do the following:

if test -x $(which git); then
    git rev-parse --short HEAD > .changeset
    git rev-list HEAD | wc -l > .revision
else
    echo "Unknown" > .changeset
    echo "0" > .revision
fi


What I *really* wish is someone could write a patch to have a "make" or
"make rpm" do that as well. My build environment understanding is weak
and I'm not sure exactly the best way to do it.
