Agreed. By then the upstream could disappear, migrate to whatever hip vc system there is in five years, etc. And maybe I fail to see the intent behind using the date in release tag of vcs-checkouted package. Perhaps it's just an arbitrary identifier. But if the intent is anything close to making a life easier for whoever reconstructs the srpm, using the release number makes more sense than the date alone. PM
