Hi Denis,

Thanks for your response!

According to the SourceURL#GitHub guidelines:
"For a number of reasons (immutability, availability, uniqueness), you must use
the full commit revision hash when referring to the sources."

I think the guidelines are insistent on using the commit hash because tags can
be deleted and recreated on a different commit without any record or indication
to those downloading it.

Also, found these from the devel mailing list for reference:
* https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2014-January/194209.html
* https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2014-January/194363.html
* https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2014-January/194498.html

Regards,
Jeff
