Perhaps Git is correct and your HEAD is not a descendant of any tag whose
name matches the pattern "lal-v*".
Here is how people can mimic the situation:
$ git checkout v1.7.6~20
$ git describe --match='v1.7.*' HEAD
v1.7.6-rc0-3-g6c92972
$ git describe --match='v1.7.[7-9]*' HEAD
fatal: No tags can describe '6c92972d7f5ab247a8cab5e4b88cb281bf201970'.
Try --always, or create some tags.
