[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/libcamera: update source URL

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/libcamera: update source URL

[Laurent Pinchart]

libcamera has moved for a while now to gitlab.freedesktop.org. The
mirror on git.linuxtv.org is still active, but it isn't the canonical
repository and has less bandwidth than freedesktop.org. Switch the
libcamera source URL to gitlab.freedesktop.org.

Why the trailing slash?

Though I've just checked and :
 git clone https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/camera/libcamera.git/

works as expected,

Viewing the webpage, drops the .git but cloneing without .git reports
the following:

kbingham@Monstersaurus:/tmp$ git clone https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/camera/libcamera
Cloning into 'libcamera'...
warning: redirecting to https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/camera/libcamera.git/

Which has the trailing slash so :

That's exactly why I added a trailing slash :-)

The web interface does however report this as the URL:

 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/camera/libcamera.git

without the slash, and cloning that doesn't redirect to one /with/ a
slash.

Personally I wouldn't add it - but it's harmless either way.

I'm fine dropping it. Can this be done when applying the patch ? I can
send a v2 otherwise.

I removed the trailing slash and applied to master, thanks.

We usually don't put those in Buildroot. Also, it will remain
consistent with other packages using gitlab.freedesktop.org
(piglit, waffle).
