Ok. I'll make a new version for this.
BTW: meta and mete-yocto belong to the same git repo actually, so do you think showing them in one line like this

meta,meta-yocto   = "master:2c2d9d7c0e942b6748bc8bd7d5980113bae9a836"

is better than showing 2 lines like this:

meta             = "master:2c2d9d7c0e942b6748bc8bd7d5980113bae9a836"
meta-yocto    = "master:2c2d9d7c0e942b6748bc8bd7d5980113bae9a836"

?

Thanks,
