Maybe try to prepend PREMIRRORS , then possibly everytime it will use
HTTP/HTTPS protocol instead git (because it will be the very first match).

I set in .gitconfig to always use https:// (don't forget 'git' at the end of
path) instead git:// for yoctoproject url

insteadOf = git://git.yoctoproject.org/
I would pefer a solution that can be handled at the distro/site.conf level so
that not very developer has to change their .gitconfig.
However this is a good work around, thanks.

Subject: [yocto] Yocto git server via http and mirror tarballs
Hi
Because of firewall restrictions I'm not always not able to access the
git.yoctoproject.org via the git protocol but I'm required to use http.
By default most of the recipes in Poky recipes use the git protocol not the http protocol. For
example yocto-kernel-tools points to repositories
"git://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-kernel-tools" instead of
"http://git.yoctoproject.org/git/yocto-kernel-tools";.
To work around this issue I added a mirror rules for rewriting the protocol
like this:
MIRRORS += "\
git://git.yoctoproject.org/.*
git://git.yoctoproject.org/git/PATH;protocol=http \n \
"
This seems to work and I'm able to fetch the sources even when git access is
not possible.
But when I then enable BB_GENERATE_MIRROR_TARBALLS = "1" I'm starting to get
different tarball names depending on what protocol was used.
For example "git2_git.yoctoproject.org.yocto-kernel-tools.git.tar.gz" vs
"git2_git.yoctoproject.org.git.yocto-kernel-tools.git.tar.gz".
I assume this happens because the first tarball was create while git access was
possible, while the second one was created when only http was possible:
git.yoctoproject.org/git => git.yoctoproject.org.git
git.yoctoproject.org => git.yoctoproject.org
Is there any way to prevent the tarballs from having different names? For
example derive the name always from the original URL not the mirror one?
Or is there a better way to achieve what we are doing with MIRROR?
Thanks for your help.
Pascal
