Junio C Hamano c96c29093f GIT-VERSION-GEN: adjust for ancient git
When an ancient "git" that does not understand "describe"
command is on the $PATH, "git describe" emitted a Usage message
without exiting non-zero status (which is a mistake we cannot
fix retroactively).  Catch this case to make sure we do not try
using phoney multi-line string as a version number.
