[Distutils] setuptools feature: tag_git_description like tag_svn_revision

[Jasper van den Bosch]

Hello all,

Might it be an idea to have an option like 'tag_git_description' similar to
tag_svn_revision? A possible implementation could use git describe; such as
suggested by Douglas Creager in this gist: https://gist.github.com/300803.
I am currently using this for my packages, but it might be nice to
integrate it into setuptools.
