I'd like to know which official Git version (as cloned
from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git) corresponds
to my msysGit version.

It's not in official git.git.  msysgit is based on official
git 1.5.5, i.e. tag v1.5.5 (9d8318051).  msysGit adds, however,
a lot of commits that are (not yet) in official git.git.

git checkout 9d258 didn't work.

Any hints? Is there a Website or another mailing
list for msysGit?

Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I was looking for. :-)

BTW, I couldn't checkout the commit '9d8318051' you mentioned from git.git.
No such something, it said. When I checked out 'v1.5.5' it said my HEAD is
now '1d2375d'. Probably I messed up my clone, but I thought the commit id
was unique for all time.

Whoa, stop. I re-cloned git.git to a different directory and succesfully checked
out 9d8318051. Look:

$ cd git

$ git checkout 9d8318051

I'd expected that "HEAD is now at 9d8318051...". Wrong?
When I checkout "1d2375d" it says the very same:
 > HEAD is now at 1d2375d... GIT 1.5.5

So what's the difference then between 9d8318051 and 1d2375d?
gitk doesn't know about 9d8318051 at all. Seems that there are
two ways to get to v1.5.5: via 9d... and via 1d.... Is that right
or did I misunderstand sth. here?
