Here is how I get the version I pull from git.  I clobbered together
bits and pieces I found over the internet to come up with this:

git describe |awk -F"." '{print $2}' |awk -F"-" '{print "0."$1"."$2}'

It outputs something such as:

lynchmv at slacke6400:~/src/mythtv$ git describe |awk -F"." '{print $2}'
|awk -F"-" '{print "0."$1"."$2}'
