Subject: [StGit PATCH 2/2] Always resolve "git describe" to something
Date: Thu, 09 Oct 2008 11:02:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081009090202.12637.2907.stgit@arrakis.enst.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20081009090157.12637.45887.stgit@arrakis.enst.fr>

Sometimes, "git describe" cannot describe the current version. Use
"--always" so that we have a fallback.
