Extension:Version

The Version extension shows version and possible updates for extensions loaded via Git.

→ You get your extensions via git? You want to know if there are updates for your extensions? This is the extension for you!

Tries to make right what was made totally wrong with bug 38783.

Still in Development!

Feedback about usage of this extension is very welcome.

Note: Returns strange results at the moment, somehow git in commandline returns other things then git with shellexec in mediawiki.
