* New persistent file, `~/.gimme/versions/known-versions.txt`, which is kept in sorted unique order * Add `--resolve` for handling version specifiers in a normally-lightweight manner, where stdout gets the resolved version. * Handle `NN.x` (and `NN.MM.x`) as a version specifier, against the known versions * Have the `--known` output be cached to disk; there's a cache bypass mechanism (flag), and a cache age control environment variable. * Rework some cache handling stuff to be in cleaner functional abstractions * Adds a `_version_sort` filter * Bug-fix for stable age using access-time not mod-time on darwin|*bsd See the README updates for notes on interaction between `--resolve` and git tag resolution, and how to avoid that. Fixes #129 Resolves #110
