Would `git describe` suit your needs?

$ git describe
v1.11.3-rc1-1917-gd3b8084

The current tag is v1.11.3-rc1. There are 1917 commits between
v1.11.3-rc1 and gd3b8084.

$ git describe --match v1.11.0-rc1
v1.11.0-rc1-5874-gd3b8084

There have been 5874 commits since v1.11.0-rc1 was tagged.

Yup.

Any way we could have the "v1.11.0-rc1-1917" portion automatically put into the gerrit review once it's been 
cherry-picked into master/master-x.x?

Like if a script is currently generating the "Change has been successfully cherry-picked as ..." message, then have 
it append the 'git describe' output to that message?

I don't understand how that would help end-users? They don't get the
full commit message, just the SHA...
