*groan*, I tried that, but got:

# git describe --contains 189d3c4a94ef19fca2a71a6a336e9fda900e25e7 --match '^v.*' fatal: cannot describe '189d3c4a94ef19fca2a71a6a336e9fda900e25e7'

and

# git describe --contains 189d3c4a94ef19fca2a71a6a336e9fda900e25e7 --match 'v.*' fatal: cannot describe '189d3c4a94ef19fca2a71a6a336e9fda900e25e7'

at which point I gave up..
