[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] bitbake: fetch2: Make SRCREV_FORMAT name substitution safer

[Ulf Magnusson]

Given two names "foo" and "foobar" and SRCREV_FORMAT = "foo_foobar",
"foo" might currently get substituted twice. Work around the issue by
sorting the list of names by length and substituting longer names first.
