With a fresh release like Sumo, it is better to stay at the HEAD of the 
sumo branch for some time. Updates here should not break things, but fix 
bugs instead.
When it stabilizes or when you are making a release, you can use a 
certain commit or release tag.

Both tags point to the same commit (da3625c52e), so choose one.
