Hi folks, I've ran into a problem using tag names in SRCREV for git repositories after migrating from 1.4 to 1.6.1 "daisy".
Before (1.4) the following worked fine: SRCREV = "v${PV}" SRC_URI = "git://github.com/rleitner/psplash.git;protocol=https" When using 1.6.1 the following error message is produced: ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 'git://github.com/rleitner/psplash.git;protocol=https'. The command git ls-remote https://github.com/rleitner/psplash.git refs/heads/v2014-02-03 refs/tags/v2014-02-03^{} gave empty output unexpectedly I think the refs/heads argument in the git ls-remote call should contain the branch instead of the tag name. A "fixed" call would then look like this: git ls-remote https://github.com/rleitner/psplash.git refs/heads/master refs/tags/v2014-02-03^{} I also think I've found the error in the source and will send a patch in reply to this message. regards, richard -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
