tmux master branch version issue

[Chris-Bee]

Hello,
when compiling the tmux from source (master branch). tmux -V shows "master" as the version number. This causes "source .powerline/powerline/bindings/tmux/powerline.conf" to fail. If I checkout the latest tag of tmux so that tmux -V shows a version number e.g. 2.3 - "source .powerline/powerline/bindings/tmux/powerline.conf" works fine.

I had the same issue. when I checked out master. I changed the file in bindings/tmux/__init__.py to hard code the version info for now.

Line 76: version_string = "tmux 2.3"

This fixed it. Excepting that, I don't think there is much that can be done from powerline.

@BlitzKraft: well, sane behaviour would be to expect tmux to be of the latest supported version if it reports master.

@s-ol That makes the most sense. Can anybody do it and just do a pull request?
