Subject: mk_exim_release: output an useful error message when used for older versions
X-Git-Url: https://git.exim.org/users/jgh/exim.git/commitdiff_plain/aa672401091ae127b095c2bb479f1de6cc4848ff

mk_exim_release: output an useful error message when used for older versions

Older releases can't be built with the newer mk_exim_release script,
as there are interdependencies with scripts/reversion and version.sh
