Subject: [PATCH] t4205: correctly test %(describe:abbrev=...)

From: Kousik Sanagavarapu <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2023 23:46:59 +0530

The pretty format %(describe:abbrev=<number>) tells describe to use only
<number> characters of the oid to generate the human-readable format of
the commit-ish.

This is not apparent in the test for %(describe:abbrev=...) because we
directly tag HEAD and use that, in which case the human-readable format
is just the tag name. So, create a new commit and use that instead.
