Do git clone --recursive https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer.git to get sgminer instead of downloading it the way you are, or use git submodule init and git submodule update before configuring
still not working Sad
still shows you dont have jasson... in mingw shell, goto your sgminer dir and enter git submodule update --init and see if it downloads it if not then there is a problem with git
i have to open a git shell separately (not the one i use for mingw) then use git submodule update --init, then go back to mingw and do the rest from autoreconf -fvi on

Thanks,

I got jansson installed now. Do version numbers matter here? i did the submodule update on sgminer folder, but now it doesn't find OpenCL after configure.

Gonna try to redo it.
not really... for some reason i cant get my fork of sgminer to show 5.0.0
only way i could do it as far as i have found would be to delete my repo and refork it then add my changes back

Duuuuuude. I know you probably brain farted here... but *facepaw*

Try grepping master of the official sgminer git for the version message. Do the same with with yours. Copy. Paste.
ehhh what's grepping?
the extent of my actual programming knowledge is computer basic learned about 25 years ago
i did add 5.0.0 tags and release to my fork but it didn't help
still a newbie at github controls

I cloned your master, compiled it, dumped the version, then searched for it. Only the object file and binary file matched, meaning that the version is not in the source - it's from git. You could always use --disable-git-version - I'm pretty sure that'll do it.
I knew that but it annoys me that the git version isn't showing 5.0.0 like it should
