Variables

var Revision string

Revision contains the git revision hash. If the source has been modified but has not been committed then the Revision string will be suffixed with "[modified]"

var Version string

Version contains a the current version number of the project

If the version string is "development" then it means that the project has been manually built (ie. not with the makefile). However, there is git information and so can be discerned to be part of the development process

If the version string is "unknown" then it means that there is no no version number and no git information. This can happen when compiling/running with "go run ."
