## user story As a visitor of openQA instance I would I'd like to know the currently running openQA version. It is It's useful for instances I do not don't have ssh access to see the package version (e.g. https://openqa.opensuse.org) ## acceptance criteria * **AC1**: Show same version as available in packages, e.g. OBS package in devel:openQA * **AC2**: For git deployed instances show unique version from git * **AC3**: If no version can be found this is handled gracefully ## tasks * read version from rpm file if available * read version using `git describe` * provide git tag on master repo (see below) * display version e.g. in footer * can provide helper that are usable in branding so that vendors can tailor (that sounds weird) ## further details * "unique version from git" could be `git describe` based on a tag which is on a very old commit so that the counter value of commits after the tag has some use. https://openqa.opensuse.org). If this raise a security issue, it can require login to see it.
