Introduce an easy way for projects to get its git version. This is something that other projects using git would like to do, and we don't want them all reinventing the wheel.

Hi *,

I would prefer an output with an explicit git string as:

v1.4.2-rc3-git46faaaf

Also I would prefer the dirty state with an ending M as in:

v1.4.2-rc3-git46faaaf-M

to use the same letter of the diff family.

Perhaps it would be more useful to have a flag for git-describe to describe not the (HEAD) commit but your working copy (thus HEAD + check for the dirtyness).
