Your mailer mangled your message. Please turn of line wrapping for
sections with code.

What is that for? Where does the archive come from? BitBake takes care
getting a clone/checkout of the repository.

Please take a look at the existing Git recipes, for example

	$ find recipes/ -name *\_git.bb

and send a patch next time using `git format-patch …` and `git
send-email` so people can easily deal and test your code.


Thanks,

Paul
