The .zip and .tar files have recently been just of format "opensim-" 
followed by the first 7 characters of the commit ID. E.g....

opensim-c4d225e.zip

Like you Garmin, when I download the sources from the above ViewGtit 
location to do a new build I usually add the commit yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm 
to that locally to help in version control.  I used also to add the 
previously displayed linear sequence r/ddddd number which used to be 
handy but was removed a month or two ago as it was causing dev problems.

The problem just now though seems to be that the Viewgit web page zi 
and ./tar download links is adding the extra very "0.6.9.rc1-ddddd-" 
part in the download  file name. E.g. the source zip link of the 
latest version today on 
http://opensimulator.org/viewgit/?a=shortlog&p=opensim is named..

opensim-0.6.9.rc1-16011-g6dafce9.zip
