-version info is "not as useful" as it may should've been

[stdedos]

Version in the tagged version:

go-junit-report/main.go

Lines 14 to 18 in 7fde464

	var (
	Version = "v2.0.0-dev"
	Revision = "HEAD"
	BuildTime string
	)

Version @https://github.com/jstemmer/go-junit-report/blob/master as of now:

go-junit-report/main.go

Lines 18 to 22 in e939e4f

	var (
	Version = "v2.0.0-dev"
	Revision = "HEAD"
	BuildTime string
	)

May I suggest something along the lines of:

//go:generate sh -c "git describe --tags --first-parent --abbrev=0 > commit.txt"
//go:embed commit.txt

for "rolling" builds, and "hardcoded" changes on tagged commits
