gstlal_compute_strain should record/report it's current configuration
NOTE: see updated request for this issue in comments below
There are three things that I can think of that would be really useful if the gstlal_compute_strain pipeline reported:
- it's own version
- the git hash from the commit in the IFO repo of the config file it's using
- a hash of the filter file it currently has loaded
This would be really helpful in assessing the current state of the pipeline compared to the rest of the calibration pipeline.
The best place it could report these things would be in additional slow channels that it writes out to the hoft frames.
