.inc files make sense with current packaging because they are revision
control friendly. E.g. you can put the logic into .inc and follow its
history with 'git log' which is not possible when there are only the
versioned .bb files.
You can follow changes to the .inc but not anything that went in and
out of the .bb, but I do concede that git not tracking the renames
directly does mean some histories are harder to track (although simple
to follow as the commit where the history stops will tell you where to
pick it up again).
git log --follow foo_1.2.bb handles 90% of this:
--follow
Continue listing the history of a file beyond renames (works
only for a single file).
E.g. you can go all the way back to systemd 196 with:
git log --follow meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd_216.bb
