Version 2.1.10

Version 2.1.10 is finally there and includes various bug-fixes and improvements :-)

New Features / Bug-Fixes:

• The plugin has now the additional option <useNativeGit>true/false</useNativeGit> option to choose whether to run with the original jgit implementation or to perform calls to the native git-binary. By default the plugin uses the jgit java implementation (<useNativeGit>false</useNativeGit>) and as a general thumb rule the native git binary should only be used if you experience any strange performance issues (e.g. git data extraction takes several minutes) or any other problems that might not be limited to git shallow clones. (#120, #119, #118, #110, #93)
• Added new property git.commit.id.short-describe that strips out commit hash and gives more (non-tech-) user friendly build number (e.g. instead of 1.2.0-123-gd3a890 it will give 1.2.0-123) - #111
