Each checkout you make from the repo has it's own version.  Now, if you
are shown version 7.8.03, it can mean several things: you really have
that version checked out (forgot to pull?  on a different branch?) or
you may have a mixed install.

It is.  The above tells us that something is amiss with your org-mode
from Git.  We just can't tell what exactly since you didn't give enough
information.

git remote update
git fetch --tags
git checkout master
git describe

Achim.
