Hi, all! I'm continuing to work on the "git_config for extensions" issue
(my Framework PR #3294), now working to pass a 'sources' dictionary through
instead of making 'git_config' a special case.
What I'm attempting, is to factor out the code inside the loop over sources
in fetch_sources(), and put that into a separate function which can be
called also from fetch_extension_sources(). At one point in this block, the
checksum for the source is retrieved by calling get_checksum_for():
self.get_checksum_for(checksums, filename=filename, index=index)
The filename argument doesn't seem to be used for anything, and I am
wondering if I could safely leave it out. Is the filename there for "future
expansion"? Or is it a relic of past code? I did a search, and it seems
like it's only called from other functions in easyblock.py.
