    <thetext>If a layer is defined in the BBLAYERS variable with a prefix such as a git:// reference it would be ideal if the layer could be dynamically fetched, expanded and used.</thetext>

    <thetext>This has come up already (see bug 1598). At the time our thinking was that updating the layer should be a manual operation rather than something automatic within the build process itself.</thetext>

    <thetext>I&apos;ve recently discussed this again with Richard, and because it would require a double-parse it&apos;s unlikely that we would implement this as having URLs in bblayers.conf. Therefore I think this really is a duplicate of bug 1598.

(We really ought to have had this discussion much earlier - my apologies.)
