  short observations someone higher up the food chain is welcome to
resolve:

  in this section:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual.html#git-fetcher

explanation of "tag" parameter refers to "revision" parameter, should
be just "rev" parameter, no?

  and in git.py fetcher file itself, in the early self-contained
documemntation, there is no mention of any of the "rev", "subpath" or
"destsuffix" parameters.

  that's it for now.
