Potentially using the git hash as a seed would make sense, so for a given snapshot of code it is always going to be deterministic. When the git hash changes (i.e. your code) then that would result in a different set of test inputs running.
Using a git hash still has the problem of a co-worker's changes (which alter the git commit) causing an unrelated property to fail.
Hypothesis has a nice option, to pick the seed for each property by hashing that property's code. It's a nice idea, but relies on Python's highly dynamic nature; so may not be easy/possible in other languages (especially compiled ones).
