Hi Lauren,

For the repo manifest file (default.xml), can you use tag names (e.g., 
yocto-1.6) when possible instead of the SHA for your revision attribute 
inside of the project tag?  It would save some time of having to do a 
reverse lookup for each revision attribute (commit) and make the 
manifest more friendly.

And how would I figure out why you chose a particular commit that wasn't 
otherwise notable / tagged (e.g., you're not using the 1.6 tag in 
meta-fsl-arm)?

I looked through the commits in fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git, but I didn't find 
anything to help me with this.

Lastly, I'm not able to clone fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git.  When I run:

git clone git://git.freescale.com/imx/fsl-arm-yocto-bsp.git


I get "warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to 
checkout".  Is this a bug?  If so, where would I log it for this project?


Thank you,

Bob
