DESCRIPTION
-----------
Instead of using only the annotated tags, use any tag
found in `.git/refs/tags`.
+--contains::
+ Instead of finding the tag that predates the commit, find
+ the tag that comes after the commit, and thus contains it.
+ Automatically implies --tags.
+
--abbrev=<n>::
Instead of using the default 8 hexadecimal digits as the
abbreviated object name, use <n> digits.

+ Instead of printing both the SHA-1 and the name, print only\r
