Older git versions seem output the original argument to stdout if there
is no upstream, presumably because they try to do things with it
internally. This can be prevented by passing --verify to it, which
should be safe on newer git versions.

Instead of assuming master is the current branch and origin the right
upstream, try to get both dynamically. If the current branch is not
tracking any upstream, use the origin of the master branch.

This is not a valid option in older git version, used in e.g. RHEL6.

Change the revision output to r<upstream-revision>+<local commits> so
it is easier to get the base revision (and see if there are local
commits).
Example:
$ ./scripts/getver.sh
r794+3
$

Path to the Git repository directory can be overriden by using the '$GIT_DIR'
environment variable. This patch improves detection of Git repository by using
'git-rev-parse', which respects '$GIT_DIR' environment variable, instead of just
checking the existence of '.git' directory.

Git internals are referenced by .git which isn't necessarily a
directory. It may also be a file that references the actual .git
directory using the gitdir directive.
If .git is assumed to be a directory the build will not be able to get
the correct version when openwrt is included as a git submodule because
when used as a submodule .git will actually be a file referencing to a
subdirectory in the parent's git dir.
When the correct version is not detected some image generation tools
will fail because the OpenWrt string will be 'OpenWrtunknown' which is
too long for some header formats.
