I think you could avoid the 'short' complication altogether by doing 
something like this:

> +elif test -f ../../PERF-VERSION-FILE
> +then
> +	TAG=$(cut -d' ' -f3 ../../PERF-VERSION-FILE)

That extracts 'TAG' as a true sha1 and makes GVF correct on out of tree 
builds as well.

haven't tested it though.
