Comment (by jaredgrubb):

 So I suppose a "got_description" added into the sourcestamp would be not
 workable?

 One alternative is that got_revision could be filled with the description
 instead of the revision based on some boolean option (along with something
 to get the right revision out for a subsequent rebuild).

 Locally I've been just adding it as a property named
 "got_descirption{%s}"%project.
