+It's interressing for git/svn snapshot so you can get a srpm like this 
+for exemple :
+libkvkontakte-1.0-0.git.20110908.mga2.src.rpm
+version here is 1.0 & the Release is set to %mkrel -c git %gitdate

+Yep i forgot to mention that it's better to use the date of the snapshot 
+instead of the commit hash (which can still be available somewhere in 
+the spec for memory).

+No you're right, the %git macro here is not correct :p
