no. I was thinking instead of
cat PERF-VERSION-FILE
#define PERF_VERSION "3.12.g953bfb"

you have
cat PERF-VERSION-FILE
3.12.g953bfb

But remember this is a new PERF-VERSION-FILE at the top of tree -- just
like the HEAD file that contains the top commit id. Both are generated
as part of the make perf-tar-src-pkg to keep track of the origin of the
source. The new file becomes the basis of $(OUTPUT)PERF-VERSION-FILE.

something like that could be done too.
