I don't think so.  The commit does not move around though different
branches.

I don't see why you would actually use any branch or tag information.
As you just learned, this is not reliable.  Just refer to the commit
ID, and you are all fine.

As for help: I cannot see which help you would need to run a test
build.  You can check yourself if it builds or fails.  Remember, the
code was orking before you broke it.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
