prompt does not correctly display tag

[dbrowne]

radar displays:
git:(upstream ⚡ detached@4560144) 2M 56A

I expected git:(upstream ⚡ my_tagName)

Is this assumption wrong?

The readable_branch_name function only outputs either a branch name or detached@sha. Mostly because I don't use tags that much. It's definitely something I'd like to add. Do you have any idea how to identify if a commit is associated to a tag?

I would love to see that feature as we use tags regularly.

This is how to obtain a tag if there is one:

git describe --tag <commit-sha> --exact-match

gives either

fatal: no tag exactly matches '<commit-sha>'

or the tag name :)
