[PATCH 1/3] - Add GIT Version number

From: Sean <seanlkml@sympatico.ca>
Date: May 21, 2005, 18:32 UTC
Message-ID: <2230.10.10.10.24.1116700329.squirrel@linux1>

Add a version number to the GIT Makefile; lifted from the Linux kernel source. Once set, the version number will be reported by the "--version" option on git commands that are converted to argp argument processing.

The version number was arbitrarily set to 0.5.0 as a starting point, but obviously you can change it as you see fit.
