source is a bashism. '.' is sh, but source is easier to grep for, so i suggest to use 'source' when the script is bash and you're pretty sure it will stay bash. '.' otherwise. ${bar} should only be used when it's needed.

source is bashism and shouldn't be used if there's a plain posix-style alternative. Also, why would you grep for "source" in a PKGBUILD if it will just return all PKGBUILDs because they contain source= lines. As for ${bar}: I would like to have that enforced for consistency.
