According to James Youngman on 7/6/2009 4:43 PM:

In findutils.git, you pushed a lightweight instead of a signed tag for
FINDUTILS_4_5_5-1. As a result, 'git describe' claims that the master
branch is still based on 4.5.4 rather than 4.5.5.
Also, many GNU projects are starting to use simpler signed tags (v4.5.5)
rather than lengthy ones (FINDUTILS_4_5_5-1), as it a) works better with
the git-version-gen script (although you aren't using that yet), and b) is
easier to type (mixing underscores, dashes, and numbers is particularly
prone to mistyping). Would you mind doing the following:
$ git tag -s -m 'Findutils release 4.5.5' v4.5.5
$ git push tag v4.5.5
- --
Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
