Describe the issue you encountered:
When running Brave, it can be hard to tell what version it is. Release candidates don't distinguish themselves clearly for example.

Expected behavior:
Users should be able to go to Help > About Brave on PC or Brave > About Brave on Mac and not only get Chromium versions, etc. But also get the last SHA that was included from browser-laptop.

The ideal solution would get the SHA and put it in a meaningful location during the build process (ex: when you run npm run build-package

• Platform (Win7, 8, 10? macOS? Linux distro?):
  All

• Brave Version:
  All

• Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install a release candidate of Brave
  2. From the menu, pick About Brave
  3. Notice it doesn't say this is a release candidate. How would you know?
  4. Be sad

@srirambv pls post a new issue in 0.13 and tag it windows only. Thanks!

This same behavior was originally the root cause for #6406

Logic was updated to get each field in a try/catch with #6410

@srirambv you should be able to see the error message in the console if you launch from command line. This should help us when you create the issue and tag as 0.13 😄

Unable to repro after restarting from console. @bsclifton Last time it had the same console error reported in #6442.

After relaunching shows correct info
