This is totally and completely wrong. The version number changes on each
commit, are you claiming that the PKGBUILD needs updated for each
commit? Even if you're talking about a major/minor version change, just
rebuild the package and it updates. That's your responsibility, the
package isn't out of date unless it doesn't build because of upstream
changes.
