#16373: base should maintain a persistent working copy for all supported VCS
fetches

Comment (by ryandesign@…):
This assumes ${distname} is sufficiently unique, which it likely isn't.
This particular port sets version to include the version number,
${git.branch} and a date, but the default for distname is
${name}-${version}, and it is common for projects that fetch from git to
update their commit hash while the version and of course the name stay the
same. The distname should probably be changed to be ${name}-${git.branch}
for git, ${name}-${svn.revision} for subversion, etc.
