Personally speaking I see this as a recipe for a release of file which just
happens to use git to fetch the tarball (and presumably that hash is the
5.24 tag).  In situations like this I prefer to see the recipe called
file_5.24.bb as there's no point having a giant PV including git SHAs when
it's just the release.
