Hey everyone interested.
It seems obvious that this repo is not maintained anymore (last activity was in December 2021) , thus I suggest to fork it, maybe rename it in the fork, and adding a few of the people that made PRs here maintainers on the new repo, so we will not end up with a headless repo again so easily.
Then we should of course also release that new version; probably under a new name.

Looking shortly at the forks with changes here:
https://github.com/fusion-engineering/rust-git-version/network
I would have chosen @darthdeus fork as the new base,
but maybe the current version from this repo would be more democratic and save.

I am happy with anyone doing this. I would also do the basic part of it myself, if no-one else steps up.
