Nicely analysed and described. One minor thing nagged me in the
implementation but it is not a big issue.

We know D (and $d) is not a tag, but perhaps the place that assigns
to $d (way above) can do the rev-parse of D^0, not D, to make it
more clear what is going on, especially given that...

... this does that D^0 thing here to makes us wonder if D needs
unwrapping before using it as a commit (not commit-ish).
If we did so, we could use $d here instead of D^0.
