I have a ReST (ReStructured Text) document that auto-numbers headings.
I have a heading like:
My Heading
----------
which will be given a number like 10.1 (say), except of course I don't know
what the number will be until I've compiled the .rst file using Sphinx.
Later in the document I want to refer to the heading number, but *not* turn it
into a cross-reference or link. I want to say:
See clause XX.X.
where the XX.X is replaced by the number 10.1 (or whatever it turns out to be)
but it should be just plain text. How can I do this using ReST and Sphinx?

git gets easier once you get the basic idea that branches are homeomorphic
endofunctors mapping submanifolds of a Hilbert space.
