I tried this out a bit:
[rhaas pgsql]$ git describe --long --always --all --dirty
heads/master-0-gd133982d59
[rhaas pgsql]$ git checkout head~
...blah blah...
[rhaas pgsql]$ git describe --long --always --all --dirty
heads/x-218-g6393613b6a
Eh, what? Hmm, maybe it's because I have a local branch called 'x'
lying around from something or other.
[rhaas pgsql]$ git branch -D x
Deleted branch x (was 77b6b5e9ce).
[rhaas pgsql]$ git describe --long --always --all --dirty
tags/REL_10_BETA3-458-g6393613b6a
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.
