From then on, the layers Toaster makes available for selection via layer sources are the ones from the branch compatible with the selected release (in the case of the OpenEmbedded layer source, the dizzy branch). However, if a certain layer does not exist in the branch for my selected release, I would like to select a layer from another branch to add to my project. For example, in the case of the OpenEmbedded layer source, chances are that a layer from the master branch will work with the latest Yocto Project release. 52554 1 belen.barros.pena 2015-07-23 13:02:32 +0000 This should include the ability to set a tag or commit as well, effectively "freezing" the layer revisions. 53019 2 mhalstead 2015-08-12 15:58:08 +0000 Clearing 2.0 milestone 59939 3 belen.barros.pena 2016-03-14 14:32:46 +0000 This becomes important when interacting with devtool, so tentatively moving to 2.2. See bug 9229 for some background. 81740 4 david.reyna 2018-10-04 12:48:39 +0000 This can be very unstable. The new Layer Import covers this if the user really wants to do it.
