Hello Robert,
Mmph. I understand the desire to identify the exact commit used for a
build somehow, but something whose output depends on whether or not I
left a branch lying around locally doesn't seem that great.
Indeed, the branch/tag search might have a little strange behavior.
Probably you would be more happy with just the commit (--always) & knowing
that it was changed (--dirty).
sh> git describe --always --dirty
b81eba6
sh> vi README
# edit
sh> git describe --always --dirty
b81eba6-dirty

Fabien.
