Please help me understand something. Why are you so concerned about the
use of Git Tags? I have included text which clearly states that if the packager
believes that re-tagging is being used, he MUST follow a specific procedure
to resolve that issue. If there is a problem with the archive the checksum
won't match. What is the harm if we later find that upstream did re-tag?
The archive with the embedded commit information is already in the srpm.
The act of re-tagging can't change that. We always know the commit hash
version of that archive.
The fact that upstream uses the submodule capability doesn't mean that
the code within that submodule is a bundled library. If it is found to be, then
of course the "No Bundled Libraries" guideline would apply.
