Subject: Patches from VCS
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 12:30:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C3AEED8.5080907@vollmann.ch> (raw)
patch.bbclass contains this line (62):
url = bb.encodeurl((type, host, path, user, pswd, []))
This line removes the parms from url bevore giving
it to the fetcher to compute the localpath.
This effectivly disallows getting the patch from a version
control system (given that supports fetching single files).
So I'm curious about the reason for the above line.
The fetcher has to cope with all parms anyway in do_fetch,
so the only reason I can see is either (false) optimization
or to explicitely forbid fetching patches from a VCS.
Has anyone a problem with removing that line?
