[bitbake-devel] [PATCH v1][RESEND 0/1] bitbake: fetch2/git: add SRC_URI option versiontag

[pascal.huerst at gmail.com]

From: Pascal Huerst <pascal.huerst at gmail.com>

This patch adds a new option to SRC_URI to fetch the latest tagged release.

We want to fetch the latest tagged release from our repositories. Bitbake
already comes with latest_versionstring(), which fetches the tags from a
remote, using ls-remote, sorts them and finds the newest using variable
${UPSTREAM_CHECK_GITTAGREGEX} which can be used to set a regular expression.

Please let me know what you think and what could be improved, or if there is
a better way to achieve this.

Thanks,
Pascal
