Hello vagrantfile is ruby so you can use ruby magic, ie variables
or, what I would do would be: create this structure myawesomebox/0.0.0 myawesomebox/0.1.0 myawresomebox/1.0.0 and put a vagrantfile there on each directory then, you can use myversion = Pathname.new(Dir.getwd).basename.to_s and that variable will be the name of the direcrtory i use that to name the box as the directory, but in your case you can use it to grab de version.
