Pulls git shas from webpages and compares them to tags in local repos.
The idea is that we arrange for our apps to render the deployed git sha (usually in a comment on their front page). We use Plus2Version for this.

prod_versions
fetches this sha & compares it to shas in the corresponding local repo (currently we're just matching tags... it'd be a good idea to extend this to refs).
Its node! You need node! Get node!
Then, make yourself a repos.js
which looks like repos.eg.js
.
Then run it.
./prod_versions
I made the decision that the git sha is opaque and meaningless enough that displaying it on the page of my apps is of no security concern at all.
You might think differently, and I just wanted to bring it to your attention.
