Restrict the tags used to generate the version string to those that
begin with "v", since git's tags for git-core (ie. excluding git-gui)
are all of the form "vX.Y...".
This is to avoid using private tags by the user in a clone of the git
code repository, which may break certain machinery (eg. Makefile, gitk).

Changes from RFC:
- used "v[0-9]*" instead of just "v*"
- mentioned gitk as another piece that may break
