+# NAME
+
+git-annex version - show version info
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+git annex version
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Shows the version of git-annex, as well as repository version information.
+
+git-annex's version is in the form MAJOR.DATE, where MAJOR is a number
+like 5, which corresponds to the current repository version, and DATE
+is the date of the last release, like 20150320.
+
+Daily builds of git-annex will append a "-gREF" to the version, which
+corresponds to the git ref from git-annex's source repository that was
+built. Therefore, "5.20150320-gdd35cf3" is a daily build, and
+"5.20150401" is an April 1st release made a bit later.
