IMHO, the later wording of the question is much better.

I think "friend" would be a reasonable choice here too.

I think: "What version do you use now?" and "How log do you use git?"
may be more useful here. From which version may give rather confusing
results because someone may "start" with 1.4 a week ago just because
that is the version included in Debian Etch and after realizing that
version 1.4 has serious usability issues upgraded git to 1.5. Besides,
1.5 is around for a long time now (as most as long as all previous
versions), so 1.5 can mean either one month of usage or 18 months...
