AFAIK there is no equivalent of $Revision$, $Id$, or $Date$ in git.

What I think we should do here is create a new makefile target for
documentation, something like make release-doc, that will retrieve the
current version of sip-router from its Makefile system and re-generate
all documentation so that it includes correct version.

We can then run this whenever we make a release, I could also update
my server-side scripts to update the version string for the files
available online at http://sip-router.org.

I agree that we should have version information in documentation
files, especially those that are available online, and I think we
should do this before we make a release.
