It is the same M-x org-version command.  If you are running org-mode
from a git repository and git is available in your path then the M-x
org-version command will report the current commit you are at as part of
the version information.

Org-mode version 7.01trans (release_7.01g.37.g3ee6)

The 7.01trans is the version number in the emacs lisp source files.  The
'trans' part indicates it is the development branch sometime after the
latest 7.01 release.  The git describe output (release_7.01g.37.g3ee6)
just gives precise details of exactly where you are in the repository.

The reported git release version is always the commit you have currently
checked out.  If you are running older compiled sources then it will
report incorrect information -- you're really running the older compiled
version even though your current checkout is something else.  You can
reload your version with M-x org-reload and C-u M-x org-reload (to run
from source files, not compiled versions if they exist)

HTH,
Bernt
