No need to know. It is just a random (or not so random) sequence of
hex digits. If nothing documents it to have some significance, don't
assume it to have any significance.


Thank you for the clarification. It does have some significance.


Anyway, even if this was a combination of the GIT IDs it would still
be useless as an identification


Well, is it claimed anywhere to be useful as an identification?


I (wrongly) assumed it was meant for identification. In fact if the
same build generates the same sequence then they are synonyms and can
be used for some sort of identification (as I just explained in a
previous email).

I realize from your answer that the code was generated simply to make
the folder name unique.

But this is irrelevant since the installer folder will no longer be created.
