On a fresh download of crabz@0.8.1 on Linux:

crabz -V
crabz git:22d81b5

FYI, the standard git commit reference is just a g prefix and then 7 characters: g22d81b5.

Often like this:

crabz v0.8.1 (g22d81b5)

The reason it's formatted that way comes from git-describe, which is typically used by tools that mix git commit info with other baked-in build / release info.

@coolaj86 How are you installing crabz, from a clone or a fork of this repo? git-describe needs to be able to find tags. the git: prefix helps distinguish that the version is sourced from git vs. cargo.

fork:

crabz git:23b5016

clone:

crabz git:v0.8.1-2-g23b5016

cargo:

crabz cargo:0.8.1
