There is a bit more in the Yocto Project Reference Manual at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/poky-ref-manual/poky-ref-manual.html. It states:
SRCREV - The revision of the source code used to build the package. This variable applies to Subversion, Git, Mercurial and Bazaar only. Note that if you wish to build a fixed revision and you wish to avoid performing a query on the remote repository every time BitBake parses your recipe, you should specify a SRCREV that is a full revision identifier and not just a tag.
Also, Section 5.1.6 of that reference manual has some information on developing within Yocto Project for a package that uses an external SCM.
I am not sure if these will help you but this is where the latest documentation is for SRCREV.

Subject: [yocto] SRCREV variable
Hi ,
Can anyone explain how to set the SRCREV variable for a recipe ?
I get a error: "Please Set SRCREV to a valid value"
The poky manual simply has the following explanation:
'SRCREV Revision of source code used to build package (Subversion, GIT, Bazaar only). '
For example if my source is MesaLib-7.9.tar.bz2 file from following site...what steps do I need to do to get the SRCREV ?
ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/7.9/
Thanks
Rahul
