Keyword substitution and cvs/svn style version numbers are independent
issues. The sha1 describes a commit uniquely, one could use that as a
keyword.
Increasing version numbers are meaningless in a true DVCS world. What is
your 100th commit may not be someone else's, even if both your master's
heads are the same! This is why hg version numbers are a local thing.
They are merely a local shortcut for specifying a revision and serve the
same purpose as git's "backward" counts like HEAD~3 etc. Neither of them
work permanently, not even in a local repo, if you allow rebasing.
git rev-list HEAD|wc may produce something like it, but be sure to read
up on --sparse and --full-history.
