That's from outside the PKGBUILD. I already did that when I uploaded the package a month ago. But since then the package was updated. It's not automatic versioning if I need to update SRCINFO every time.
You what now? Why do you need to update the .SRCINFO at all? The PKGBUILD is not updated in the AUR, therefore the .SRCINFO is not updated in the AUR either. .SRCINFO is not used by makepkg at all, in any way, shape or form, so there's simply nothing to discuss about that. This is simply how git packages work. Stop trying to automatically version it, because there's no such thing as automatic versioning. There is only automatic updating.

First thing coming to mind: Did you possibly forget to update the .SRCINFO file?
Hoe do I update it from the PKGBUILD itself?
The PKGBUILD format is by definition separate from the .SRCINFO, you don't update it automatically by the PKGBUILD.
You update it separately. The general process is described here:

The "aurpublish" package available in the community repositories can do this for you.
OK. But I'll still need to create a local script that will do that, right?
aurpublish *is* a local script to do that. ... I'm still rather unclear on what your goal is. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
