+Changes in BitBake 1.8.x:
+ - Fix -f (force) in conjunction with -b
+ - Fix exit code for build failures in --continue mode
+ - Fix git branch tags fetching
+ - Change parseConfigurationFile so it works on real data, not a copy
+ - Handle 'base' inherit and all other INHERITs from parseConfigurationFile
+ instead of BBHandler
+ - Fix getVarFlags bug in data_smart
+ - Optmise cache handling by more quickly detecting an invalid cache, only
+ saving the cache when its changed, moving the cache validity check into
+ the parsing loop and factoring some getVar calls outside a for loop
+ - Cooker: Remove a debug message from the parsing loop to lower overhead
+ - Convert build.py exec_task to use getVarFlags
+ - Update shell to use cooker.buildFile
+ - Add StampUpdate event
+ - Convert -b option to use taskdata/runqueue
+ - Remove digraph and switch to new stamp checking code. exec_task no longer
+ honours dependencies
+ - Make fetcher timestamp updating non-fatal when permissions don't allow
+ updates
+ - Add BB_SCHEDULER variable/option ("completion" or "speed") controlling
+ the way bitbake schedules tasks
+ - Add BB_STAMP_POLICY variable/option ("perfile" or "full") controlling
+ how extensively stamps are looked at for validity
+ - When handling build target failures make sure idepends are checked and
+ failed where needed. Fixes --continue mode crashes.
+ - Fix problems with recrdeptask handling where some idepends weren't handled
+ correctly.
+ - Work around refs/HEAD issues with git over http (#3410)
+ - Add proxy support to the CVS fetcher (from Cyril Chemparathy)
+ - Improve runfetchcmd so errors are seen and various GIT variables are exported
+ - Add ability to fetchers to check URL validity without downloading
+ - Improve runtime PREFERRED_PROVIDERS warning message
+ - Add BB_STAMP_WHITELIST option which contains a list of stamps to ignore when
+ checking stamp dependencies and using a BB_STAMP_POLICY of "whitelist"
+ - No longer weight providers on the basis of a package being "already staged". This
+ leads to builds being non-deterministic.
+ - Flush stdout/stderr before forking to fix duplicate console output
+ - Make sure recrdeps tasks include all inter-task dependencies of a given fn
+ - Add bb.runqueue.check_stamp_fn() for use by packaged-staging
+ - Add PERSISTENT_DIR to store the PersistData in a persistent
+ directory != the cache dir.
+ - Add md5 and sha256 checksum generation functions to utils.py
+ - Make sure Build Completed events are generated even when tasks fail
+ - Correctly handle '-' characters in class names (#2958)
+ - Make sure expandKeys has been called on the data dictonary before running tasks
+ - 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
+
