Comment (by warner):

 Note for the future: the Tahoe setup.py "what is my version?" code doesn't
 appear to succeed in the Dockerhub build process. The build log makes me
 think that the `.git` directory was not copied into the container: `git
 describe` ran without error, but probably returned a short git hash
 instead of a tag name. I don't know how we're going to get useful version
 strings into the container using the Dockerfile "ADD" command. We probably
 need to do a `git clone` inside the container instead of copying files in
 from the outside; maybe there's some way to copy a git hash into the
 container and then do a clone of that specific revision. Or perhaps the
 ADD command has an option to copy the .git directory too.
