[BUG] git describe number of commits different from git log count

Hello, I have a repository with following situation: $ git describe next v4.1-2196-g5a414d7 $ git describe next --match=v4.2 v4.2-4757-g5a414d7 Since the tag with fewest commits since is selected, it appears logical. However, v4.2 is descendant of v4.1, so it does not make sense
