  Description     : version-string management for VCS-controlled trees

This is a tool for managing a recorded version number in
distutils-based python projects. The goal is to remove the tedious and
error-prone "update the embedded version string" step from your
release process. Making a new release should be as easy as recording a
new tag in your version-control system, and maybe making new tarballs.
