Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Our bug report template currently misses the version under which the problem occurs.

Describe the solution you'd like
If there would be a way to get the version from the website, we could reproduce bugs way better. The exact commit hash would be the best value to indicate the exact state of the website.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Adding a checksum of the whole repository to detect whether someone has changed the code beyond the current git commit is not feasible, because there are files like the config.toml, which are changed anyway.

I found this very good solution to get the git commit hash: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14989858/get-the-current-git-hash-in-a-python-script

Both the docker setup as well as the ticketfrei setup instructions in the README.md clone the git repository, so we can use this.
