openstack-cloud-controller-manager-binary does not show the correct release in OKD/OCP4.12+

[jonasbartho]

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?:
/kind bug

What happened:
The openstack-cloud-controller-manager binary in OKD 4.12(=free version of Openshift) does not show the correct git-release that is being used.

# openstack-cloud-controller-manager --version
Kubernetes v0.0.0-master+$Format:%H$

What you expected to happen:
Since openstack-cloud-controller-manager is the out-of-tree provider of Openstack by default in OKD/OCP4.12+, it would be nice to see which version it is using. I for example want to use new functionality from release-1.30, but it looks like it is not available yet. Is there any other way to check which release I am on?

Environment:

• openstack-cloud-controller-manager version: unknown..
• OpenStack version: 2024.1
• Others: OKD/OCP 4.15

I found the following command that gives sort-of a hunch which version currently is being used:

$ oc adm release info --commit-urls |grep -i openstack-cloud
