There is a strong preference for only using versions that are ‘official 
releases’
‘blessed’ by upstream, and not some random commit, unless there are compelling
reasons to do otherwise.

I see the 0.1.7 commit dates from 2017.  If there are new features and/or bug 
fixes,
maybe ask upstream to make a new release?  If there are important bug fixes and
upstream doesn't feel ready for a new release, we can cherry-pick the bug fixes
via the 'patches' mechanism.

Or maybe we could just use the commit, I dunno. But then a comment should be 
added
explaining why a particular commit is used instead of an official release.

Greetings,
Maxime.
