We will have many cases where there will be upstream and downstream repos where commits will be synced from one to the other and you wouldn't want the fix version to be synced. Also, when forking repos or branches you want to set up and configure the new branch/repo and the master branch at the same time of the fork without pushing a commit to the repo. There are also cases (e.g., for sandbox repos) where you might not want the gitupdater feature enabled, and again it would be unworkable for the config to be in the repo.

I think there may be projects where it would be useful to have the version information stored in the repository - for example, it would be immediately obvious when the version is bumped. But as you say, it may not be the case for all projects. I'll update the change to allow this to be configurable per project: Either a fixed version, read the version from .jcheck/conf, or don't set the version at all.
