Comment (by waddlesplash):

 Now it shows a very long string with hrev, short commit hash, branch
 name, and a bunch of other things.

This is exactly what we tried to avoid with the hrevs. Having a short,
 sequential, unique identifier that the user can easily understand.

 Well, the A4 hrevs included the branch name in the hrev, so at least we
 need that somewhere. I'll see about cutting down some of the other items;
 probably just branch + tag + commit count is enough.
