Version tag

See original GitHub issue

Would it be possible to create a __version__ attribute or similar so that individual runs can be reproduced? We usually recommend versioneer or similar for this kind of operation.

@dgasmith I will start using versioneer when I’m ready to release 0.2.

Yea, versioneer is starting to get a bit out of date, not sure what happened to the maintainer. I would assume that someone will fork it at some point. Anywho versioneer is “installed” so that a git repo carries it around and acts like a static dependancy. While it hasn’t been updated in awhile it certainly does the job without issue and is used in many high profile projects, see the following two examples: https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas https://github.com/dask/dask

Unfortunately not aware of alternatives for automatic versioning. There is the good old “by hand” approach, but it is easy to forget to update and has the downside of not being correct between releases.
