Description Christopher Larson 2012-03-06 22:46:53 UTC 
The very useful bitbake-diffsigs script can do more than just diff signature data -- it can also dump the data from a single signature data file. I think this functionality should ideally be made obvious from a naming perspective. E.g. a symlink from bitbake-dumpsig to bitbake-diffsigs, or a wrapper script to avoid storing a symlink in git, or a standalone script utilizing the same functionality from the siggen module.
