I'm about a month outdated ATM (see the moving... thread), but I can 
confirm, 0.141 is pan git.  The policy appears to be bump the version 
number in git right after a release and include git commit hash as well.  
That way the version number shows the relative age, including unreleased 
head if applicable, and the commit hash can be used to narrow down even 
further if there's a recent regression or fix to be traced.

I think a useful addition to that would be version bump both for a 
release and immediately after, which if started now, with a bump 
immediately before the next release and another immediately after, would 
mean odd version numbers are git builds and evens are release builds, 
much like the old Linux kernel versioning policy, but that hasn't been 
the way it has been done to date, just the post-release bump in git (and 
before that svn, and before that...).
