I was thinking to set a post-commit hook that reads the current version from a file, increment and save it, and also set a tag with that value. Being a DVCS, this kind of versioning can only be trusted on a single repo, but if you set it on the "main" repo, it should work. The only drawback could be the ever growing number of tags, I don't know how it will work with thousands of tags or more.
