[PATCH 2/2] completion: enhance "current branch" display

From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:46:44
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Introduce GIT_PS1_DESCRIBE option you can set to "contains", "branch", or
"describe" to tweak the way how a detached HEAD is described.

The default behaviour is to describe only exact match with some tag
(otherwise use the first 7 hexdigits) as before.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <redacted>

 * I do not think the new modes based on name-rev (aka "--contains") are
   much useful if you do your own development while on a detached HEAD,
   but they probably are useful for tourists who sightsee.
