I was not aware of an alternate codepath for full decorations (and am
surprised about it).

I can't look into this before next week, but --decorate=full should
produce "HEAD -> refs/heads/master" and such.

I even vaguely remember testing it, but that may have been for v1 which
turned different knobs than the end version.
