`git describe --contains "$tag" | sed 's/~.*//'` is
my trick for
finding the first tag that contained a commit.
BTW, this might be a useful tweak: since I have so many tags in my tree
beyond just Linus's tags (e.g. from linux-next), I also include "--match
'v*'". My ~/bin/git-contains is:
git describe --match 'v*' --contains "$1" | cut -d~ -f1 | cut -d^ -f1
(without this, my "git contains 85dc2c65e6c9" would report
"next-20180927")
