I don't understand, are git hashes even included at all currently? See bug 53335 comment 9.

Seems to not be not valid anymore, seeing no links on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Version
This report was valid, but due to other changes has become invalid now. :/

For some reason that I yet have to understand, Wikimedia projects' Special:Version is different (and less useful) than the actual MediaWiki core one.

And for unknown reason the link on twn doesn't work at all:

https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Version says 1.23alpha (f8a577a)

(f8a577a) links to https://git.wikimedia.org/commit/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/f8a577a82aaa3c08e6322c1acfd0731ec694f453

which (http-)redirects to http://git.wikimedia.org/log/mediawiki%2Fcore.git
