[bitbake-devel] [PATCH 1/2] fetch2/gitsm.py: Disable branch checking on submodules

[Mark Hatle]

Submodules by definition refer to a specific commit, not branch.  If we don't
ignore the branch, then any commits on a submodule on a branch different then
the original module will trigger a failure that the commit is not on the
branch.
