gnvim Wrong version number in tarball

I went to the Releases page on Github and downloaded the latest release tarball (0.1.6). After extracting it, in Cargo.toml, the version field is set to 0.1.0.

Gnvim doesn't use the version in Cargo.toml. Our build script extracts the version number from git tags (on build).

git tags

Which don’t exist if you download a tarball. But feel free to close this ticket if you don’t consider the tarballs on your Releases page to be an acceptable way to get package sources.

This current way has proven to be a problem with others too, so I'll probably adjust my release flow to add the version number into the Cargo.toml file.

Gnvim was rewritten from ground up for gtk4, and the current build file doesn't try access git anymore for the version number. If the problem persists, feel free to reopen this issue.
