According to Jim Meyering on 2/21/2008 1:37 AM:
| So Bob fixed git-version-gen to do the right thing,
| even with older versions of git.

I'm also interested in seeing it fixed to work with newer versions of git.
~ The (as-yet-unreleased) 1.5.5 release supports 'git describe --match
"v[0-9]*"' to filter on only tags that look like version numbers; useful
when there are other more recent but less relevant tags in the history.
