CMake, SCons, Meson, etc. are not bound to build in a Git (or any other VCS) repository, in fact they focus on building a source tree. That package building for the Dub repo works with Git repositories and tags is the problem.

Funnily it looks like the git information is missing from the packages
stored in ~/.dub/packages ... also its not a 1:1 match to the git repos.
e.g. i have only dub.sdl files in my repos, but if i dub the packages
there is a transformed dub.json file.
