To me, the purpose of buildhistory's metadata-revs is to enable someone
else (or myself in the future) to recreate a specific build, that's why
I always save this file with any build artifacts. Simply saying "meta"
isn't good enough because it doesn't specify which repository's "meta".
So the purpose of this patch is to try to clarify which repositories
we're talking about.
Before:
meta = master:00d3fd571a8d261d065b43f5cf3076a381843984
meta-oe = master:a1e135a499998add7575682bf53db5e02e753580
meta-gnome = master:a1e135a499998add7575682bf53db5e02e753580
meta-rpb = master:203903ca6f4e8df09bef6ea3c6e899d07eca8df9
meta-96boards = master:2be59f0d381b5ec173d7fc24f3ae14aaf47b8649
meta-qcom = master:32fcda819acb8ec485d9ab05108d554f807bf75d
meta-browser = master:a3789a4168fcd42f1cdf5b5febe2c779a9467919
meta-linaro-toolchain =
master:367f784b831938dc508b7d472342d2d0d6ed9769
meta = master:37b61b059031e3c272a929b834e12fd83f46598c
meta-poky = master:37b61b059031e3c272a929b834e12fd83f46598c
After:
openembedded-core/meta =
master:00d3fd571a8d261d065b43f5cf3076a381843984
meta-openembedded/meta-oe =
master:a1e135a499998add7575682bf53db5e02e753580
meta-openembedded/meta-gnome =
master:a1e135a499998add7575682bf53db5e02e753580
meta-rpb = master:203903ca6f4e8df09bef6ea3c6e899d07eca8df9
meta-96boards = master:2be59f0d381b5ec173d7fc24f3ae14aaf47b8649
meta-qcom = master:32fcda819acb8ec485d9ab05108d554f807bf75d
meta-browser = master:a3789a4168fcd42f1cdf5b5febe2c779a9467919
meta-linaro/meta-linaro-toolchain =
master:367f784b831938dc508b7d472342d2d0d6ed9769
meta-poky/meta = master:37b61b059031e3c272a929b834e12fd83f46598c
meta-poky/meta-poky = master:37b61b059031e3c272a929b834e12fd83f46598c
I have a second patch, now, that will generate the following output,
which I think is even better:
git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core.git
openembedded-core/meta =
master:00d3fd571a8d261d065b43f5cf3076a381843984
git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
meta-openembedded/meta-oe =
master:a1e135a499998add7575682bf53db5e02e753580
git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
meta-openembedded/meta-gnome =
master:a1e135a499998add7575682bf53db5e02e753580
git://github.com/96boards/meta-rpb.git
meta-rpb = master:203903ca6f4e8df09bef6ea3c6e899d07eca8df9
https://github.com/96boards/meta-96boards.git
meta-96boards = master:2be59f0d381b5ec173d7fc24f3ae14aaf47b8649
https://github.com/ndechesne/meta-qcom.git
meta-qcom = master:32fcda819acb8ec485d9ab05108d554f807bf75d
git://github.com/OSSystems/meta-browser.git
meta-browser = master:a3789a4168fcd42f1cdf5b5febe2c779a9467919
git://git.linaro.org/openembedded/meta-linaro.git
meta-linaro/meta-linaro-toolchain =
master:367f784b831938dc508b7d472342d2d0d6ed9769
git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
meta-poky/meta = master:37b61b059031e3c272a929b834e12fd83f46598c
git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
meta-poky/meta-poky = master:37b61b059031e3c272a929b834e12fd83f46598c
Frankly, there are too many forks and clones. There are too many
meta-beaglebone or meta-odroid or meta-raspberrypi repositories. If six
months from now I want to recreate a build I've done today, I'll need to
know the repository, where it's from, and which commit was checked out.
My latest patch provides that information.
Is this better?
