If you execute 'git log' on the command line, the long string after the word "commit" is the build identifier, e.g. in

<paste>
commit 4841858600cf35903966d48451015b2be5e97d5c
Author: Chris Hart <chris at reactiongrid.com>
Date:   Wed Sep 2 13:28:57 2009 +0100

     MSSQL patch to mirror mantis 4077 for MySQL to improve region load times
</paste>

4841858600cf35903966d48451015b2be5e97d5c is the identifier.  We often identify these only by the first selection of 
characters, e.g.

48418

These identifiers are not sequential.  There might be a shorter way to get this information from the command line but I 
don't know what it is.
