Really?  gitgui generates emails now?  ;-)

Matthias, your git binaries were built with an older (pre 1.5.0) git-describe in the path. This caused the version number to be incorrectly determined, due to an old bug in git-describe.

Recompiling with your "gitgui.0.6.3" git-describe should get the correct version number, as that is most definately after the git-describe bug fix.
