Context
As part of the tarball generation process, we are generating files that contain information about the source (for sourcelink purposes). We need to bake this step into the VMR assembly process so that these files are in place for source build to work.
Furthermore, the current VMR PoC uses dotfiles with hashes to store information about what commit it synchronized each individual repo with. We can re-use these git-info files instead.
