The About page now shows two version lines:

  • App version: git tag on tagged commits (with sha), or full git describe output on non-tagged commits
  • Store version: Play Store versionName-versionCode

This makes it easy to identify which tagged release a build corresponds to, since the Play Store build number auto-increments independently of git tags.

@nbrownus What do you think about this one? This is because previously, I could not find the tagged version anywhere on my Android phone.
