The solution is simply to move the finished files out of the way. E.g. once the download is complete, execute mkdir old-files mv woody* old-files/ (Note that the .jigdo/.template files must also be moved away or deleted before you attempt to download a newer version with the same name.) Later, when you want to update the image, loop-mount old-files/woody-i386-3.raw and pass to jigdo-lite the directory it is mounted under. jigdo-lite will create ./woody-i386-3.raw using data from old-files/woody-i386-3.raw.
