Prior to git migration, there was an SVN revision number instead of the code "3e1bae7", and it was possible to get it from API by using the "rev" property in a query such as this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&format=jsonfm
Now that MW is uses Git, there doesn't seems to be a way to get the "3e1bae7" because the "rev" is not defined.
The relevant code seems to be at
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gitweb?p=mediawiki/core.git;a=blob;f=includes/api/ApiQuerySiteinfo.php;h=e11d1105262af5ec919568c1240067a9cfe94558;hb=HEAD#l123
Could someone add an analogous code which would result in things such as "3e1bae7"?
