Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] t6120: test for describe with a bare repository

From: Sebastian Staudt <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2019 07:00:25 +0100

This ensures that nothing breaks the basic functionality of describe for
bare repositories. Please note that --broken and --dirty need a working
tree.
