<div dir="ltr"><div>Actually, the GL are pretty clear here: the source should be referenced using the full commit, nothing else. There is some reasoning why. The tag should got to Version: (as long its 'sane').<br>
<br></div>Besides that this is the existing GL, there is also a subtle difference in git-archive (which supposedly runs this). When archiving a tag, the sources gets today's date. OTOH, when archiving a commit, the sources modification dates are their commit date. Last time I checked this was also true on github.<br>
