Trac seems to munge the diff a bit (take a look at the original format), and I'm not sure if it's better to import django then call django.get_version() or import the method directly, but here's a stab.

Looks good, James. Thanks. I'll commit this in the morning (when I'm more awake and can read it again).

Hmmm... note to self: we should import get_version into the namespace of management.py so that any existing code doing from management import get_version
will continue to work. I'll fix that when I commit.

Having the settings file import anything even slightly complex (like management.py) is probably a bit risky, since if any other module is imported indirectly that uses settings, they can't be changed any longer.
So the idea is correct, but we should do the version compositing some other way. Pushing get_version into
django/__init__.py
might be better.
