[oe] linux-omap3_git.bb doesn't work when copied to user.collection

[Elvis Dowson]

Hi,
	I've been faced with a problem for the past day, where I'm trying to  
use linux-omap3_git.bb, after it has been copied to my user.collection/ 
recipes/linux folder, I set the DEFAULT_PREFERENCE =  "1"

but it gives me a fatal: not a git repository error. I have even  
deleted the entire org.openembedded.dev and synchronize the repository  
as of Sunday, to pull in Steve's latest changes.

What could be causing this?

Best regards,

Elvis
