[Fedora-packaging] Release Tag for Pre-release *and* Snapshot

I've got a package where upstream that has basically stopped doing 
releases, so I package git snapshots.  However, the last release they did 
was a pre-release (0.8.0rc1).  Any suggestions on what an appropriate 
Release tag should be in this case?

Something like:

0.%{releasenum}.rc1git%{shortcommit}%{?dist}
