Subject: Provide git-describe based version information when running from within git
X-Git-Tag: v0.17.0~3
X-Git-Url: http://git.grml.org/?p=grml2usb.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=4d800e56b2e2de9cdf1d133fd4ce6680c4918a33;hp=46166cdc45ea47cf3bf8fd51951ca56a0f994c69

Provide git-describe based version information when running from within git

This is useful when executing grml2usb from inside grml2usb.git itself

Thanks: Florian Apolloner for review and feedback
