Thanks for looking into it,
The full version number is "2.12.0.246.ga2ecc84866" but I don't think
that's an official number, I'm using my company (Google) apt
repository.
The git package date is 2017/03/03 while previous version was from
2017/02/16, the commit you identified is actually between the two, so
that may be it.
