Right - generally we need to trust that version updates don't do this, and
there's no easy way to detect this. The recipe already does:
PV .= "+git${SRCPV}"
which is the standard way to mark "random development commits", so I'd say
resubmit your patch with an explanation in the commit log
that you're merely bumping one development snapshot to a newer development
snapshot.
