Explicitly set the version? #62

👋 it looks like the project is currently using 0.0.0-git for cargo.toml, what is the rationale behind? (why not just explicitly specify the version) Thanks!

Because I use git tags to indicate versions instead. Duplicating information is pointless. However, Cargo doesn't support not having a version field, nor does it support reading version information out of git tags, and so we have this unsatisfactory compromise solution.

Releases get a (mangled) Cargo.toml that properly includes the version number, which is done in this action step.
