I learned something today!

From the `gitrevisions(7)' manual:

    <describeOutput>, e.g. v1.7.4.2-679-g3bee7fb
        Output from git describe; i.e. a closest tag, optionally followed by a dash and a number of commits, followed by a dash, a g, and an
        abbreviated object name.

In fact:

    $ git describe --tags ccae04f205db7cffa0f247a463272f6c5af77122
    emacs-24.4-1962-gccae04f

And:

    $ git show emacs-24.4-1962-gccae04f

Then shows the commit.

That's interesting!

I couldn't test the fix yet because I don't want to learn how to build
Emacs just now. Instead, I'll wait for the next release (lazy, I know).

I'll send the e-mail that closes the issue.

Thanks!
