The bitbake repository is fetched by the ab-prserv script, the purpose
of which is to run a PRServer for the autobuilder.

The ab-prserv script, and the code which calls it in yocto-start-
autobuilder, won't start the script if PRSERV_HOST and PRSERV_PORT
aren't set.

If you point PRSERV_HOST and PRSERV_PORT at a non-localhost PRServer
the git repo won't be fetched/updated.
