If you really want to update SRCREVs often for CI jobs, then I would
setup separate job with some .inc file which sets SRCREVs of all the
components you want to test to AUTOREV and let it run as often you can
afford (even triggered from every push if your builds are quick or you
have many builders available).

Then whenever you want to "release" you can either dump the last built
revisions from this AUTOREV-build (either directly from
cache/bb_persist_data.sqlite3 or from e.g. buildhistory and dump them in
some release-1.2.3.inc included by your DISTRO (or update SRCREVs in the
individual recipes).
