- Correctly add a task override in the form task-TASKNAME.
- Revert the '-' character fix in class names since it breaks things
- When a regexp fails to compile for PACKAGES_DYNAMIC, print a more useful error (#4444)
+ - Allow to checkout CVS by Date and Time. Just add HHmm to the SRCDATE.
+ - Move prunedir function to utils.py and add explode_dep_versions function
+ - Raise an exception if SRCREV == 'INVALID'
+ - Fix hg fetcher username/password handling and fix crash
+ - Fix PACKAGES_DYNAMIC handling of packages with '++' in the name
+ - Rename __depends to __base_depends after configuration parsing so we don't
+ recheck the validity of the config files time after time
+ - Add better environmental variable handling. By default it will now only pass certain
+ whitelisted variables into the data store. If BB_PRESERVE_ENV is set bitbake will use
+ all variable from the environment. If BB_ENV_WHITELIST is set, that whitelist will be
+ used instead of the internal bitbake one. Alternatively, BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE can be used
+ to extend the internal whitelist.
+ - Perforce fetcher fix to use commandline options instead of being overriden by the environment
+ - use @rev when doing a svn checkout
+ - Add osc fetcher (from Joshua Lock in Poky)
+ - When SRCREV autorevisioning for a recipe is in use, don't cache the recipe
+ - Add tryaltconfigs option to control whether bitbake trys using alternative providers
+ to fulfil failed dependencies. It defaults to off, changing the default since this
+ behaviour confuses many users and isn't often useful.
