My expectation was that setting a git: URL premirror to a git: server is that it would do a git fetch from the new location: PREMIRRORS:prepend = " \ git://git.yoctoproject.org/.* git://internal/mirrors/yoctoproject/ \ git://git.openembedded.org/.* git://internal/mirrors/openembedded/ \ " This absolutely did the wrong thing and tried to clone git://internal/mirrors/yoctoproject. Reading the source told me about magic symbols so I changed the line to git://git.yoctoproject.org/.* git://internal/mirrors/yoctoproject/BASENAME \ This mostly does the right thing, but it does use the mirror URL in the paths: Cloning into bare repository '.../downloads/git2/internal.mirrors.yoctoproject.linux-yocto.git'... I initially started to file a bug before discovering BASENAME so now I'm thinking we need to: 1) at least document the symbols better 2) consider if a git premirror should use the final or stated url as the filename 105645 1 randy.macleod 2026-05-28 14:44:37 +0000 Antonin can you work with Ross to document this issue/limitation? 105689 2 antonin.godard 2026-06-01 13:23:14 +0000 Patch sent to hopefully clarify this: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260601-clarify-mirrors-syntax-v1-1-d9dbdbaf037f@bootlin.com 105907 3 antonin.godard 2026-06-17 15:23:49 +0000 Patch merged: https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/commit/?id=3a11c921a09c1495b5910f2411b79b4ea7a2aaf9
