Git commit id is not shown from Vcc Help/About Menu #86

When users questions features or bugs it is important that we know what build they are running. Release ID is insufficent because of re-releases on the same Vcc version. The git ccommit id (eg: a2ddf99) should appear somewhere on the Help/About dialog.

Can get id from git command line but there is no easy way to get the id that will work in all build environments. Looking into using a build time stamp instead. Appending '-beta' to development versions will help.

Closing this. Using new versioning scheme should address
