    I noticed upon upgrading to bitcoin-core 0.9.1, that the user interface lists that its 0.9.1, but the info.plist file inside the application bundle still lists it as 0.9. I'm not sure where the info.plist gets generated as I don't see any way to automatically generate the application bundle using the source tree, it seems it only supports the ./configure/ make / make install way of distribution. Is someone manually creating this plist file?

    Snippit from the info.plist file:

    <plist version="0.9">
    <dict>
      <key>LSMinimumSystemVersion</key>
      <string>10.6.0</string>
    
      <key>LSArchitecturePriority</key>
      <array>
        <string>x86_64</string>
      </array>
    
      <key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
      <string>bitcoin.icns</string>
    
      <key>CFBundlePackageType</key>
      <string>APPL</string>
    
      <key>CFBundleGetInfoString</key>
      <string>0.9, Copyright © 2009-2014 The Bitcoin Core developers</string>
    
      <key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
      <string>0.9</string>
    
      <key>CFBundleVersion</key>
      <string>0.9</string>

    The plist is generated from this template:

    https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/share/qt/Info.plist.in

    It looks to me that CLIENT_VERSION_REVISION is not even used. It only shows the major and minor version, so any 0.9 version will appear as 0.9.
