 GIT_PAGER_IN_USE=3D1 git log --all-match --grep=3Dshell --grep=3Dexpor=
t |
 git -p name-rev --tags --stdin

v1.5.6-rc0~61 is 61 commits before rc0 (well, the 61st-generation
grandparent using the first parent where there is a choice).  The
distinction matters because =E2=80=9C61 commits _after_ 1.5.6-rc0=E2=80=
=9D is not
well-defined.

If you want the latter sort of description anyway, =E2=80=98git describ=
e=E2=80=99
might help.
