43313 (log message tweaked): vcs_info git: For the branch name, try to find a symbolic name before falling back to a raw commit hash.
Ask git-describe(1) and git-name-rev(1) to compute a gitrevisions(7)
name in terms of a branch or tag that contains (= is a descendant of,
is younger than) HEAD.

In this repository, the output changes from "9567bfe..." to
"master~1" or "remotes/origin/HEAD~1". This would also happen
during bisects, e.g., "bisect/bad~22".
