That's not better than adding a commit to the project for each release imo.
I'd go for the tag thingie actually, just detecting that you are in a tag to
control if the extra 'snapshot' should be added or not.
Yes, this sounds like the most correct approach. We'll need to tag anyway :)
As mentioned above, it would be really nice if build-artifacts was invoked
also when pushing new tag to remote.
