docker build failed from tar.gz source

[pbalazs-t]

Docker build from the tar.gz source is not working. From a cloned source is working well.
If I copy the ".git" directory from a cloned repository into the directory what was extracted from tar.gz, the build is successful.

v0.14.1, v0.14.0 ....

4.246 Make sure you're either building from a fully intact git repository or PyPI tarballs. Most other sources (such as GitHub's tarballs, a git checkout without the .git folder) don't contain the necessary metadata and will not work.
4.246
4.246 For example, if you're using pip, instead of https://github.com/user/proj/archive/master.zip use git+https://github.com/user/proj.git#egg=proj

hmm, guess this is a nasty side effect of determining the version number from the git repository.
