Git version script for Unix/Windows

You need to have 'sed' and 'git' installed in order for this script to work.

Your git tags must be in format "1.0.123"

1 is major version

0 is minor version

123 is revision number

You can add before this number a string including lowercase, uppercase, '_', '+' and '-', (for example: "Version-0.1.2").

Usage example:

  gitversion . version.h.in version.h
