Q: 

Getting commitid or 'git describe' with git-cvsserver and a CVS working copy

I have some automated tools that are accessing a git repository through cvs and git-cvsserver. I would like these tools to be able to see the commit ID of the content that they checked out. Is this recorded somewhere in the CVS metadata directory?
