I don't understand what you want. If you check out sources with an
explicit tag and use them verbatim, the version numbers identify the
source completely. If you have local mods, then the version is
inaccurate. Nothing that the process of releasing a beta can doing
anything about.

Depends on what semantics you want to implement. Please be more
specific.
