The tool is not working for me.

Do you have git installed?

Hi there, it seems to be an issue with this line. If the error message produced by git is in a different language, it will fail.

Replacing the content of head_has_versions with:

return get_repo().git.tag(l=True).strip() != ""

fixed it for me. It might however be better to first check git describe --tags, and if that fails do git tag -l.

Hey, im experiencing the same issue, although im not sure how to compile/run with the changes. Im quite new to all this and have never really tried stuff with python.
I've downloaded the sourcecode, made the change you recommended but now im in a deadlock trying to figure out how to install/use the program now.
Running the setup.py file gives the error that there is no module named 'setuptools'
Any help would be appreciated :D
