Makefile: Quiet errors from git describe
With new git versions, it is an error to invoke git inside a repository
owned by someone else. This manifested as
$ sudo make install
fatal: unsafe repository ('/home/tavianator/code/bfs' is owned by someone else)
To add an exception for this directory, call:
git config --global --add safe.directory /home/tavianator/code/bfs
Work around it with `2>/dev/null`. This should also help if git is not
installed, but .git/ still exists.
