OK.

Fixed to only match strictly when --match is passed. I couldn't figure
out a way to do it without the gymnastics.

Subject: [PATCH] git-version-gen: add --match argument.
* build-aux/git-version-gen (Options): Add --match argument.
(match):
(tag_sed_script):
(tarball_version_file): Protect against ambient values of these
variables.
(massage_git_version): Contort the tests to require a match in the
--match case, and otherwise have our previous behavior.
Using --match can prevent a merge from e.g. a version 2 branch to a 3
branch from causing the 3 branch to show a 2 version, if the 2 version
released more recently than the 3 version.
