That works well with things like Subversion which ensure that the "revision number" is monotonically increasing. My understanding of git is that it favors decentralized workareas or repositories without a project-wide unique version number, and it's revisions look like "commit c82a22c39cbc32576f64f5c6b3f24b99ea8149c7" in the logs, which do not compare sensibly when considered as numbers.
