Thanks, I've added this blurb:
For example, git distributed with Apple's Xcode reports a version like:
git version 2.9.3 (Apple Git-75)
Apple started doing this to help customers distinguish between different
versions of their packaged git which have the same base version (eg: with
different patches applied).
