If repository has no annotated tags then fallback to revision for VERSION

mlandauer · mlandauer · commit a56eb453848a · 2016-04-04T07:45:58.000+10:00
The "git describe" command will fail if there are no annotated tags in
your repository. Use "git describe --always" instead which will fallback
to the revision in the case where there are no annotated tags
