I try to stick to meaningful versions, so if it's git snapshot,
it's obvious to use git<date>. It's verbose, meaningful, it doesn't
have any useless "0." components, it's compatible with switching
to actual version (gitYYYYMMDD < 0.0.0 so whatever the version is,
it won't require an epoch bump). I've used this in many ports already.

Here, though, I could actually use something like 2.1.git20161007 as my
git is based on multicat trunk past 2.1 and I've actually missed this.
Though I hope to upstream my changes and update the port to e.g. 2.2.
