Description Jeremy A. Puhlman 2020-07-09 14:13:50 UTC
Tring to test a buildscript change, but not having write access to yocto-autobuilder-helper, I placed the change in poky-contrib. Setting the repository value to git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky-contrib and the branch to pull from. While the branch name was acknowledged it appears the repository value was not.

Bulk move from 4.99 or 0.00 to 5.99
Comment 2 Randy MacLeod 2026-02-19 16:19:05 UTC
Mathieu to test.
Comment 3 Mathieu Dubois-Briand 2026-02-23 15:02:35 UTC
Ok, I confirm the issue is still present:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/valkyrie/#/builders/29/builds/3264

Build properties tab shows
> repository	"https://github.com/mbriand/yocto-autobuilder-helper.git"

But the clone command was:
 argv: [b'git', b'clone', b'--branch', b'contrib/mathieu/fake_builds', b'ssh://git@push.yoctoproject.org/yocto-autobuilder-helper', b'.', b'--progress']

I will try to investigate this a bit more.
