    Use git version to get version name
    
    Using git version is simpler as it handles oddball cases internally.
    Since we have been using mostly lightweight tags I have set it to
    search those in addition to annotated tags for the best match. The
    output for commits that don't have a tag seems a bit nicer as well.
