I don't know how important people will feel this to be, but I've occasionally
found it interesting to see how many people are using various different
versions of git in a particular development community, and having the
version in the signature is a useful gauge on that.  Putting it in the cover
letter isn't really a complete substitute for this because many patches
and short patch series go out without cover letters...
