make: *** [Makefile:169: traffic_ops/traffic_ops.rpm] Error 1

The RPM being built is traffic_ops-8.0.0-12732.0c515199.el8.x86_64.rpm, but the RPM the Makefile expects is traffic_ops-8.0.0-0..el8.x86_64.rpm (with a missing commit hash).

The Makefile should detect that we are not in a git repository and instead get the build number from BUILD_NUMBER.

Does this only affect the debug RPMs?

Does this only affect the debug RPMs?

No, --debug is unnecessary to reproduce (and is a make flag, not one of ours)
