Ok. I digged a bit around and found the backup of my old git version repository. xp:/var/tmp/git cat .git/HEAD 112d0bafd620c0e0f10614a3ba021d4de4fae331
xp:/var/tmp/git git --version git version 0.99.9i
But I wouldn't take this for serious if I were you. If the process for building the debian package isnt't able to set the exact version the above is definitly not true. Can't remember what version it was :-(
