Hi Etienne
Many thanks for the patch!

This is useful e.g. when using meta-clang, which introduces a dependency to
nativesdk-binutils when
populating the SDK, and then a full tarball of binutils is fetched additionally
to a shallow tarball.

However, there's a problem with the way your patches are received on the
Yocto Project mailing lists though. I used to have it too.
If I apply your patch through "git am", the author of the commit will be:
Etienne Cordonnier via lists.openembedded.org
<[email protected]>
instead of
Etienne Cordonnier <[email protected]>
That's because of the configuration of the Yocto Project mailing lists,
if I understood correctly.
Because of this issue, the maintainer has to manually fix this field
when accepting your patch. Worse, if he doesn't catch this, that's
harder to fix afterwards.
You should be able to fix this by running:
git config --global sendemail.from "[email protected]"
This should add a "From" field to the sent patch which "git am" should
be able to match with your name.
At least this worked for me. See
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded#Sending_using_git-send-email
Could you try to send an update (don't hesitate to send a private one to
me first)?
Thanks in advance
Michael.
