Well, 'drawback' not really the correct word. It's rather a change in
the output, and when a sha1 is used, it becomes a bit less readable
(it's OK when it's a simple x.y.z-or-such version, though).

Yeah, what bothers me a bit is th edifference on how we handle the
location where to save files. For license files, it's the callee
deciding, while for the source, it's the caller.

I'll see how I can make that similar...

Of course!

Thanks for the comments! :-)
