IMO, DUB really needs a way to specify a specific Git commit hash:
https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/dub/issues/51

I've tagged the current mysql-native HEAD as v0.0.13, so as soon as the 
dub repository sees the update (check 
http://code.dlang.org/packages/mysql-native ), you should be able to 
just do: "mysql-native" : ">=0.0.13"
