That would force us to use branches for this sole purpose, leaving us with the same problem of documentation links pointing to changing source code.
Proposed solution Allowing a placeholder ({git-commit}) for :source-uri that is replaced with the Git commit id.
Which would result in:
If you are generally interested in this solution we can supply a patch.
