Hi everyone!

I've just noticed that nobody is using `git describe` in backport
explanation. I suppose it may be convenient sometimes to mark certain
commit and version where a problem appears. Does this approach has some
drawbacks? I see only some awkwardness i.e. v2.6-dev1-142-g34527d535,
only "2.6" and "34527d535" are helpful for backporters, maybe "dev1" too,
but I'm not sure. Certainly this approach is not always applicable,
especially when a problem was made by many commits and it's unclean
what exactly is to blame for this.
