  What you have configured _should_ work. What buildroot does is:

- clone the repository (shallow clone if possible);

- export a tarball of the requested tag/branch;

- delete the repository again.

  Please note that once the tarball exists in the download directory 
(./dl by default) it will not be downloaded again - you have to do a 
'make linux-dirclean' *and* remove the tarball in order to re-download it.

  Can you remove the tarball from the download directory, run 'make 
linux-source' and post the output?

  Regards,
  Arnout
