DESCRIPTION

       g.version  prints  to  standard  output  the  GRASS  version  number,  date, the GRASS GIS
       copyright (-c flag), and GRASS build information (-b flag).

NOTES

       This program requires no command line arguments; the user simply types  g.version  on  the
       command  line to see the version number and date of the GRASS GIS software currently being
       run by the user.

       Information about GRASS GIS core GIS Library can be printed by -r flag.

       Version numbers of additional libraries like PROJ, GDAL/OGR or  GEOS  are  printed  by  -e
       flag.

       See also function version() from Python Scripting Library.
       import grass.script as gcore
       print gcore.version()

       Note:  if  revision=exported  is reported instead of the git hash then the git program was
       not available during compilation of GRASS GIS and the source  code  did  not  contain  the
       .git/ subdirectory (requires e.g. to git clone the GRASS GIS software repository.)
