Changes proposed in this pull request
Recent changes to the argument parser have made a meaningful version string no longer optional in custom built Docker containers. This updates the text to explain how to get the current version from the repository metadata and pass it to Docker.
Thanks to @emdupre and @Shotgunosine for noticing this.
