[bitbake-devel] fetch2/git: Dereference unresolved names with ls-remote

[Richard Purdie]

We need to deference names when trying to map them to commit IDs with
ls-remote. If we don't do this, a given commit might not show up
later in a specific branch. There appears to be no good reason not
to do this.
