Hi Chandana
My apologies for the delay in reviewing this - other work got in the way of OE-Core contributions but that should be dealt with now.

Looking over the patches again, we're close but the following need to be corrected:
1) The devtool.DevtoolUpdateTests.test_devtool_update_recipe_local_files test in oe-selftest fails:
---------------- snip ----------------
INFO: Adding local source files to srctree...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/data/poky/scripts/devtool", line 334, in <module>
ret = main()
File "/data/poky/scripts/devtool", line 321, in main
ret = args.func(args, config, basepath, workspace)
File "/data/poky/scripts/lib/devtool/standard.py", line 845, in modify
initial_rev, _ = _extract_source(srctree, args.keep_temp, args.branch, False, config, basepath, workspace, args.fixed_setup, rd, tinfoil, no_overrides=args.no_overrides)
File "/data/poky/scripts/lib/devtool/standard.py", line 657, in _extract_source
symblink_oelocal_files_srctree(d,srctree)
File "/data/poky/scripts/lib/devtool/standard.py", line 485, in symblink_oelocal_files_srctree
oe.patch.GitApplyTree.gitCommandUserOptions(useroptions, d=d)
NameError: name 'oe' is not defined
---------------- snip ----------------
Probably just a missing import.
2) Please change "symblink" to "symlink"
3) Indentation is very inconsistent in the added code. Please use four spaces everywhere.
I would also like to see oe-selftest tests covering this functionality, but I won't require them to ack these patches (especially given the delays on my part).
Thanks
Paul
