it doesn’t work with tarballs that way, if you were developing using SCMs then you could do this by using AUTOREVs
but if you control the tarballs then you may create a symlink which does not change and then always perform bitbake -ccleanall
on your recipe and let bitbake fetch it. But usually when using tarballs OE like to use locked versions.
