Add a -v (version) flag #19

Closed StevenBlack closed 3 years ago

StevenBlack commented 3 years ago

Hi Martin,

I stumbled upon Uni again, after using it quite awhile ago. I was thinking, I wonder if that's been updated?

But uni -v just returns standard help, and not a release or version number, as per convention.

So this issue serves to say, -v is useful to users who come back to uni after moderate period of time.

I may submit a PR for this, but just leaving this here in the meantime. Proost!

To be honest I just hate maintaining this: I always forget to update it, or it complicates the build process. It's always an annoyance. I'd rather not add it.

Okay, I changed my mind and added it anyway:

[~c/uni](master)% ./dist/uni-v1.9.9-linux-amd64 version
v1.9.9 63a89db 2020-10-19

uni -v, uni -version, uni --version, uni version all works.

Maybe I was a bit too grumpy the other day 😅

That's cool Martin. I hear you. I feel likewise on some (most?) days in my active public repos.

I just want to let you know, I ❤️ uni!
