incorrect 'git' version for GitPython==3.1.28 installed from PyPI

[boegel]

It looks like there's mistake in the release of GitPython 3.1.28 with respect to the version.

Here's the output I'm getting when GitPython 3.1.28 is installed (using pip3 install)

$ python3 -c 'import git; print(git.__version__)'
git

With older GitPython versions, I'm getting a proper version instead:

$ python3 -c 'import git; print(git.__version__)'
3.1.27

In 21ec529 there is the change:

-__version__ = 'git'
+__version__ = "git"
 
 
-#{ Initialization
+# { Initialization
 def _init_externals() -> None:
     """Initialize external projects by putting them into the path"""
-    if __version__ == 'git' and 'PYOXIDIZER' not in os.environ:
-        sys.path.insert(1, osp.join(osp.dirname(__file__), 'ext', 'gitdb'))
+    if __version__ == "git" and "PYOXIDIZER" not in os.environ:
+        sys.path.insert(1, osp.join(osp.dirname(__file__), "ext", "gitdb"))

However, setup.py puts the version in by doing a find/replace with a search for 'git':

line = line.replace("'git'", "'%s'" % VERSION)

and that fails, which leaves "git" in two places in __init__.py.

Thanks for letting me know! This should be fixed with v3.1.29, please let me know in the comments if it isn't though.

I can confirm that a proper versio is printed for GitPython 3.1.29, thanks a lot for the quick fix!

$ pip3 install GitPython==3.1.29
$ python3 -c 'import git; print(git.__version__)'
3.1.29
