It is picky, and will refuse to upgrade if the version number seems to
be lower than whatever is currently installed.
So yes, the package version should be monotonically increasing and not
simply a commit hash.

When I face this case in my own packages I normally define two
different varaibles, e.g.:

IMX_UUC_VERSION := 0.0.1
IMX_UUC_GIT_TAG := d6afb27e55d73d7ad08cd2dd51c784d8ec9694dc

and then use IMX_UUC_VERSION everywhere except in the URL:

IMX_UUC_URL        :=
https://github.com/NXPmicro/imx-uuc.git;tag=$(IMX_UUC_GIT_TAG)
